How do I hang a Japanese scroll?
1 Answer
To hang a Japanese wall scroll, first install a nail or hook in the wall. Then, hold the screen in your non-dominant hand and use a forked bamboo stick or similar implement to grip the string attached to the top. Using the stick, lift the scroll onto the hook. Then, slowly unroll the scroll. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of Japanese wall scrolls.
