And since on Christmas I had a picture of Takashimaya's tree, here's a picture of their New Year's decoration; this time it's not from the Nihonbashi store but from that in Yokohama. These decorations are called "kadomatsu" (門松) and pretty much all big stores -and often big companies- have them.
(For a bigger version of this picture both in color and black and white, check my "Japan Arekore 2" set on Flickr).
