A small hanging charm in six designs.
Tokyo Omamori Post is an independent shop, not affiliated with or endorsed by Omiya Hachimangu Shrine. The temple name shows where each charm was obtained.
- Where it's from
Ordered from the official online 授与所 (charm office) of Omiya Hachimangu Shrine (大宮八幡宮), Suginami, Tokyo.
- How it's traditionally kept
Traditionally an omamori is kept closed — opening it is thought to undo its purpose. Most people carry it in a bag, pocket or wallet, or keep it somewhere clean at home.
In Japan it is common, though not required, to return an omamori to a shrine or temple (not necessarily the same one) after about a year and receive a new one.
- Delivery
- We obtain this charm from the temple after you order, so it ships from Tokyo in about 1 week.
