Introducing entry examples and contents
-
Awaji knot (Awabi knot)
Our Noshi paper is basically available in the ``Awaji knot'' style.
The Awaji knot (Awabi knot) is a derivative of the Knot-kiri knot, and is characterized by the fact that it becomes even tighter when both ends are pulled.
The Awaji knot is due to its shape.
It has the meaning of "to be with you for a long time" and is suitable for memorial services such as thank yous, farewells, and funerals.
Therefore, it is a noshi paper that can be used in any situation.
-
Front page (thank you, year-end gift, etc.) | Name (last name only, full name, etc. possible)
Once you have filled out the front page, we will fill it out on our noshi paper at the top of the page and prepare it for you at our store.
If you would like to have your meal prepared at Sonoshi, please let us know as well.
If you would like to enter your name, please enter it in this field. You can also specify a name other than the orderer's name.
Please separate the front page and your name with "/", "|", " " (space), etc.
-
Others (Buddhist wrapping, plain noshi, etc.)
We also accept orders for Buddhist packaging. If you request a front page that indicates a Buddhist event, such as ``Memorial Service'', ``Goku'', or ``Shishi'', we will use Buddhist-specific noshi paper, wrapping paper, and light ink for the writing.
If you would like plain noshi, please write "plain" instead of the front.
If you have any other requests regarding hanging paper or noshi paper, we will do our best to accommodate them, so please include them as well.

seasonal hanging paper
If you specify a seasonal hanging paper, we will use a hanging paper with an illustration that matches the season.
We have introduced some samples at the bottom, so please take a look.
Regarding the hanging paper, if you let us know if it is for a birthday present, Respect for the Aged Day, etc., we will prepare something that meets your needs.
You can also specify the front page. We also accept other messages, so please feel free to let us know. It is possible to write your name, but some of the illustrations may overlap. Thank you for your understanding.
Please leave the illustrations you use to our store.
Noshi with only red lines, like this hanging paper, is called aka-no-shi or aka-bo.
It is a type of Noshi with no mizuhiki, and is mainly used for celebratory events such as sushi and thank yous.
These days, it seems that there are many cases in which simple gifts such as small thank-you gifts are given with the words ``Kokorodakari'' added to convey the meaning of humility.
