Originally uploaded by nofrills.

A crane is a symbol of a long (and happy) life; traditionally, and I don't know why. 

The rope is shimenawa, which is a kind of Shinto symbolism, but today's Japanese society is far from religious basically, and this sort of "wreath", I think, has lost the "religious" sense.
