About the Item
Pair of eggshaped kakemono weights (fuchin), made of blue-and-white porcelain (possibly Hirado) and decorated with a three-clawed dragon. Fuchin are used to keep the fabric or paper of a kakemono rigid. Since kakemono are stored rolled but displayed flat on the wall, these weights ensure that the scroll hangs properly and remains easy to read.
