About Noshi, Carrier Bags, and Packaging
About Our Noshi Service
For M and L size gift boxes, we can attach noshi (traditional Japanese gift paper) for a wide range of occasions, including seasonal gifts (such as ochugen midsummer gifts and oseibo year-end gifts), weddings, births, housewarmings, and Buddhist memorial services.
Noshi: ¥100 (tax included) / 1 sheet
We only offer uchi-noshi, in which the noshi paper is placed directly on top of the gift box. Please also note that noshi is not available for S size boxes.
Please reserve noshi in advance at least 3 days before the date you need it. For same-day requests, please consult the shop. Preparation may take 30 minutes or more.

How to Choose Noshi: Types and Uses
Mizuhiki cords used for celebrations
Red-and-white butterfly bow
Because it can be untied easily and retied any number of times, it is used for celebrations that are welcome to happen again in the future.
Red-and-white knotted tie (musubikiri)
Used for occasions you hope will never happen again, and for celebrations that need only happen once.
- Oseibo (Year-End Gift)
- Ochugen (Midsummer Gift)
- Onenga (New Year Gift)
- Shochu Omimai (Summer Greeting)
A gift given as a greeting at seasonal milestones. It expresses gratitude to those who regularly look after you and goodwill toward a continuing relationship.
- Uchi-iwai (Return Gift)(Red-and-white butterfly bow)
A gift given in return to those who have given you a celebration gift.
Used for celebrations of births, school entrance, and longevity.
- Uchi-iwai (Return Gift)(Red-and-white knotted tie)
A gift given as a greeting at seasonal milestones. A gift given in return to those who regularly look after you and who have given you a celebration gift.
Used for occasions such as weddings and recovery from illness (discharge from hospital). Expresses.
- Orei (Thank You)
- Oiwai (Congratulations)
A gift to express gratitude to someone who has helped you. A red-and-white butterfly bow is generally used, but care is needed with thank-you gifts for special purposes; for example, a knotted (musubikiri) mizuhiki is used for “Omimai Orei” (thanks for get-well wishes).
- Goaisatsu (Greetings)
A gift carrying the message “I look forward to our relationship from now on.” Used mainly for greetings such as when moving to a new home, it expresses goodwill toward the relationship.
- Kaiki-iwai (Recovery Celebration)
- Kaiki Uchi-iwai (Recovery Return Gift)
Kaiki-iwai (recovery celebration gifts) express thanks from the person who has recovered to those who helped them. A 5-strand musubikiri (tied-off knot) mizuhiki is used, expressing the wish that the illness or injury will never happen again.
Mizuhiki used for memorial services
Black-and-white musubikiri (tied-off knot)
Used for return gifts for condolence money (koden-gaeshi), for memorial services, and for gifts sent as offerings during Obon.
Black-and-white musubikiri (tied-off knot)
Used for goreizen (offerings to the spirit of the deceased) and gokyo (offerings) before and after a funeral, and for offerings at memorial services. Mainly used in the Kansai region.
*Customs differ by region, so we recommend checking the customs of the recipient’s area before sending your gift.
- Gokyo (Offering)
A gift given when attending a memorial service, or as an offering during Obon. Please note that the mizuhiki and inscription differ depending on the region, religion, and purpose.
- Kokorozashi (Token of Gratitude)
A gift given in return on occasions of mourning, such as a return gift for condolence money. The mizuhiki is a musubikiri (tied-off knot), and no noshi is attached. Other inscriptions with the same meaning include “Manchuin-shi” and “Shinobigusa,” but “Kokorozashi” (志) can be used regardless of religion.
