Description: Japanese Temari Ball - Handmade – New Bright Multi-Color Up for bid is a new, handmade Japanese Temari Ball. The ball is made by me! Be sure to scroll to the end to read about the rich history and meaning of Temari Balls - What a great gift for someone or for yourself! Some of the balls I make include a "hanger" so it can be used as an ornament for a Christmas tree (the hanger is made of the same thread as the design in a color used in the design). The balls can, however, be displayed in other ways whether or not they have a hanger. Display them on a napkin ring, candle holder/candlestick or on our favorite decorative bottle. The possibilities are endless. Some balls have a rattle inside - just for a little fun.

About Temari Temari is a folk-art form that was introduced to Japan by China about 600 years ago. Historically, the balls were constructed from the remnants of old kimonos and were made as toys for the children. Temari transcended from toys into an art form, with the functional stitching more decorative and detailed, displaying very intricate embroidery. The Japanese upper class and noble women competed in creating beautiful intricate objects. Temari is a cherished gift symbolizing deep friendship and loyalty, made to bring good fortune to the person who keeps it. The brilliant color and threads are symbolic of wishing the recipient a brilliant and happy life.
