Description
This decorative mizuhiki craft is perfect for wrapping gifts, and is made using Iida mizuhiki, a traditional craft from Iida City, Nagano Prefecture.
Mizuhiki is a string-like material made from washi paper, and when knotted using a unique knotting technique, it becomes a mizuhiki zaiku. This gift mizuhiki zaiku is made with silk mizuhiki, which is made by wrapping an extra-fine thread around the mizuhiki, giving it a refined sheen. Said to have the power to purify and cleanse things and ward off evil spirits, mizuhiki has been used since ancient times to send sentimental gifts. Tied using the "Awaji knot" method, a type of knotting technique, it holds its shape even when pulled, giving it a strong, auspicious meaning of "I look forward to a long and happy relationship." Each mizuhiki zaiku is carefully hand-tied, making it the perfect gift wrapping for expressing your feelings to loved ones, such as lovers and friends. It will arrive with a refreshing noshi (gift wrapping) featuring a Hokusai blue and a Seigaiha (wave) pattern.
