See other Himmeli here → #Nolla_himmeli This Himmeli features a horse made of Itaya-zaiku (a type of traditional Japanese basketry) as its centerpiece, representing the Year of the Horse in the Chinese zodiac. Since ancient times, the "horse" (uma) has been considered an auspicious symbol, representing: * Things going well * Moving forward with strength * Bringing good luck Made by hand, one by one, using natural materials. It's a design where the rustic Itaya-zaiku horse harmonizes quietly with the delicate Himmeli. Recommended not only as New Year's decorations but also for interiors in the entryway, living room, or around a household Shinto altar (kamidana). * Due to being handmade, there are individual differences in shape and texture. * Lightweight, so it can be easily displayed with push pins or hooks. The tassel is a pale pink beige. Size: Total length 34cm (excluding hanging thread), width 7.5cm In the Nordic countries, Himmeli has been cherished as: "Something that invites light and organizes space" "A decoration wishing for good luck and a bountiful harvest" Although it lacks flashiness, its quiet presence creates a serene atmosphere in the room. It's recommended to display it in a place where it can be seen, such as the entryway, living room, or bedroom. * One-of-a-kind * Production time: 4 hours Suitable for Japanese modern, traditional Japanese houses, and Nordic interiors. mina perhonen Natural interior Folk crafts Traditional crafts For those who love natural materials Nordic vintage Natural interior Ten'nen Seikatsu (Natural Living) MUJI (Muji) Itaya-zaiku Wheat straw Himmeli Wreath Dried flowers Preserved flowers Nordic Living Tools Shop Marimekko Shimekazari (New Year's decorations) New Year's decorations Chinese zodiac Thank you for viewing.
