Cranes hold a special place in the hearts of the Japanese. They have long been considered a symbol of longevity, and there is even a saying that "cranes live for a thousand years, turtles for ten thousand years."
It often appears in New Year's decorations, wedding origami, and kimono patterns.
Cranes are said to never change mates, so they are also popular as symbols of marital harmony and bonds.
