Temari . . .

"Temari "
"Handmade thread-wrapped and embroidered spheres
  originating in China and later brought to Japan.
Temari are symbols of deep friendship and loyalty,
  Imbued with the spirit of the careful hand of the maker, 
they are wonderful as a source of inspiration 
or an object for meditation & contemplation"
