This listing is for two different Japanese tassels, each hand-woven. 

One is gold and woven in the shape of a tortoise, which is a symbol of luck and longevity.  The long tassel end imitates the long tails of these revered sea creatures.

The other is pink with a rounded top and an omamori-style knot, ending in a loop that can be used to attach the tassel.

We don't know where these came from but they are typically used at the corners of fukusa gift covers, kanzashi hair ornaments, swords, and other decoratie uses.
