This item is a stone-wrapped pendant made with 100% Japanese refined hemp and the power stone smoky quartz. The string is slightly thicker than regular refined hemp pendants, making it a recommended item for men as well. If your existing power stone is the same size, it can be exchanged for the new one.

[Explanation of Seima]
Seima is a golden-colored fiber made by carefully refining the stems of the hemp plant (onusa) until they are thin and delicate. It has a stronger purifying power than water or salt, and is said to be a "plant in which gods reside" or a "sign of the gods," making it an essential item for religious ceremonies. Today, it is used for shimenawa ropes and bell cords at shrines. It was an essential item, closely tied to the lives of the Japanese people, and has even been excavated from ruins dating back to the Jomon period.
■ Size
The length of the string excluding the adjustment part is approximately 75 cm, but you can adjust it to your liking using the adjuster.
■ Material/Country of Manufacture
The materials used are refined hemp and power stones. The refined hemp is grown from seeds by the 8th generation of a hemp farm in Tochigi Prefecture that has been in business for over 400 years, and is 100% domestically produced, with the entire process, from boiling, hemp pulling, to drying, being almost entirely done by hand. The strings are made from this refined hemp.
・The power stones we use are natural stones from the shop, which are regularly healed and purified by our in-house healers to enhance the vibrations of the power stones.
■ Care/Handling precautions
・Fine linen: Since it is a natural material, it will change (become more comfortable) the more you use it, but if you notice any fuzziness on the surface, you can trim it with scissors. If it doesn't bother you, continue using it as is. If you soak it in water, it will harden and the adjustment parts will no longer move. Also, the color will change easily, so we recommend avoiding getting it wet. You can wash the strings about once or twice a month.
・Power stones: These are delicate, so please be careful not to subject them to shock. Also, avoiding strong sunlight and water exposure will prevent fading and deterioration. We recommend keeping them away from seawater and sunlight, and purifying them regularly.
