[Selected Beech Wood & Handcrafted by Artisans] The main body of the Shinto altar is crafted from carefully selected, high-quality beech wood, which is hard, resistant to deformation, water, and dirt, and offers excellent stability and durability. The fine grain creates a sophisticated design. Because the beech wood is lavishly processed by skilled artisans and is entirely handmade, each Shinto altar is unique.
[Design that respects tradition] Clouds are carved into the back of the Shinto altar. Saiun (colorful clouds) are said to represent good fortune. Fan-shaped windows are designed on both sides, and because of their wide-open shape, they are also called suehiro (end-wide), a motif of prosperity and good fortune. This design can also be used to display hamaya (decorative arrows).
[Includes Acrylic Cloud Panel] Made from durable acrylic. Compared to paper or wood, it's less likely to fade or discolor, allowing for longer use. It comes with clear mounting tape, ensuring firm adhesion even on uneven surfaces! Its glossy gold color makes it stand out. (Please remove the clear film on the surface before use.) It's customary to attach cloud panels to the ceiling above Shinto altars and Buddhist altars.
[Wall-mounted and freestanding] This is a fully assembled product. It can be used as either a freestanding shelf or a wall-mounted shelf. It can hold three ofuda (talismans) horizontally, as is typically done in a Shinto altar. It can also hold thicker items such as hamaya (arrows used for warding off evil), omamori (talismans), and goshuincho (stamp books). The shelf has three grooves, allowing you to place ofudas of different sizes without them falling over.
[Ofuda stand specifications] Material: Beech wood Size: (approx.) 15cm height x 33cm width x 11cm depth. It is a fully assembled product that can be used right out of the box. (Note: The photo of the Shinto altar is for illustrative purposes only and does not include any ofudas or goshuincho (stamp book) for worship.)
