Comment from DARUMA-shôten
In Kyoto culture, "tai (sea bream)" is considered auspicious for New Year's in Japan, but other foods such as salmon, amberjack, and Spanish mackerel are also considered auspicious, depending on the region. Especially in the Tohoku region and northward, salmon has been the main food for New Year's, and has been eaten at New Year's, or kept as a preserved food by letting it ripen. The "Niimaki Salmon" depicted here has been seen since the Heian period (794-1185), and was especially sent at the end of the year to be decorated to welcome the New Year's gods. Salmon was appreciated as a good luck charm to "avoid misfortune" and to "have many children" because of the abundance of salmon roe. The Ainu people in Hokkaido also used salmon all over their bodies as a divine fish. The Ainu bear, a resident of the land of the Ainu gods, can be seen peeking out from inside.
Please enjoy the hidden character "hikeshi," which became popular in the Edo period (1603-1868).
