In ancient times, people would hang straw sieves throughout their homes at the start of the new year, wishing for prosperity and peace throughout the year. The tightly woven texture of the sieve was believed to filter out negative energy while capturing good fortune—a cherished tradition born from this hopeful intention. Hoho-dang's Fortune-Calling Straw Sieve is crafted using a traditional straw sieve hand-woven strand by strand by master craftsman Choi Seok-bong, a straw craft artisan, with embroidered fabric decorations added to express wishes for happiness. The small bells attached at the end create a soft, gentle sound with every movement, making it perfect to hang in your entryway, kitchen, or any doorway. An ideal gift for the new year or to give to someone special starting a new chapter in their life—a decoration filled with good fortune.
