"Shuku Umigame (Auspicious Sea Turtle)" is a symbolic ornament by Tanemizutoka, a brand that reinterprets the traditional folk crafts of Iheya Island for contemporary living. Handcrafted from Kuba palm leaves and rice stalks harvested on Iheya Island, Okinawa, it takes the form of a sea turtle—an enduring symbol of longevity, continuity, and good fortune in Japanese culture. Inspired by sea turtles gracefully swimming through the crystal-clear waters of Okinawa, this beautifully crafted ornament brings a sense of peace and prosperity to any space. Unlike many regions in Japan, Okinawa has no tradition of ceremonially burning decorative ornaments at the end of the year, allowing this piece to be displayed and enjoyed throughout every season. It also makes a thoughtful and memorable gift. A hanging cord is included for easy wall display. As each piece is handmade, slight variations in shape and appearance are part of its unique character.Includes a hanging cord for easy wall display.
