Purchased directly from a hemp farmer in Tochigi Prefecture. Hemp is an essential sacred item for Shinto rituals. Shimenawa (sacred straw ropes) used to create a boundary, suzuo (bell cords), and heihaku (ceremonial paper streamers) used to purify a space, are now made of paper, but were originally made of hemp. Just having hemp creates a comfortable space. Please try transforming your home into a healing place. This is one piece of refined hemp fiber. As this is a natural product, please understand that the size, color, and feel will vary from piece to piece before purchasing. Width: Approximately 5cm Length: Approximately 160-170cm
