except in the last sales months, March and April, just before May 5th.
However, we always have enough stock through a year.

| What is KOINOBORI-JAPAN.JP? |
  
is an online shopping site specializing in Japanese traditional koinobori,
carp windsocks ,carp streamers, fish kites and their related goods.

Since 2001, our first online shopping site Zen-shop.net has been providing
people all over the world with various categories of Japanese traditional
craftworks. Like Sengoku-do.com specializing in Samurai warrior dolls,
this new site koinobori-japan.jp has become independent from Zen-shop.net
to meet our customers' needs more properly, widely and readily.

Originally, the streamers were used by Samurai warriors on the battlefield.
Whenever the ancient warriors were on the battlefield, they wore full yoroi
armor and flew streamers. The streamers were painted in various colors
and shapes. Some of them had carp pictures on them. They became "Koinobori"
at the beginning of the modern age. Since the carp's courage and strength
is a trait desired in boys, families traditionally have flown koinobori
from their homes to honor their sons.

Enjoy these beautiful koinobori unique to Japan. |
