Japanese Wooden Hanging Scroll Box Vtg Kakejiku Hako Inside Length 59.7cm SB231
Vintage Japanese Wooden Storage Box for Hanging Scroll
Hand-crafted and in a light wood color, this sturdy and slender wooden box is made to store a hanging scroll, or kakejiku. The lid is step-top and fits flush on the top. The inside features two fixed wooden brackets used for securing a scroll in place.
Typically on display in Japanese tokonoma alcoves in homes and other traditional establishments such as tea houses, hanging scrolls have various themes, from seasonal images to poems to Buddhist text and imagery. For additional decorative detail, it's popular to add scroll weights, or fuchin, which are tassels with heavy polished stones that hang from the bottom end caps.
