Objects · Rituals

A named hanging scroll of Japanese room and tea practice. Not an emaki, not a Sefer Torah, and not a thangka.

Also known as Kakemono · Kakejiku

  • Kakemono is historically related to Silk.

    Chamberlain’s Things Japanese seats Kakemono in the material and craft neighborhood of the silk neighborhood. Kakemono historically related to silk by that shared workshop path, not a forced identity merge and not a modern brand SKU dump.
