In origami, the basic shape of the crane, or tsuru, is used as a starting point for making many figures. Hanging from the ceiling as a distraction for children, the cranes represent actual offerings to temples and altars. Made to wish well to the sick and to those who have to face a difficult test, the crane can be folded for oneself, for others or to offer it to the gods, in the hope of seeing one's prayers answered.
An ancient Japanese legend has it that the crane can live 1000 years: giving a crane as a gift therefore means wishing for 1000 years of life.
The crane chooses only one mate for its entire life, which is why it is considered a symbol of loyalty and union.
The crane is a symbol of peace and brotherhood for all people in the world.
