Kadomatsu is a traditional Japanese decoration that is usually placed in front of the houses or at the entrance of a building or store.

They are placed after the celebration of Christmas and are more or less until the 15th of January. Its purpose is to welcome the ancestral spirits of the harvest season, also to bless the establishment in the year that follows.

This decoration is basically made of 3 pieces of bamboo cut diagonally, in three different sizes. There are also pine branches tied by a straw rope.

Each item has a meaning: bamboo represents strength and prosperity and pine represents long life. The 3 sizes of bamboo represent the sky (the highest), humility (the medium).
