KYO BUTSUDAN / KYOTO BUDDHIST ALTARS

About 1,000 years ago / 1000s / Heian Period (794–1185)

Kyoto Buddhist altars developed after the Heian period as temple building concentrated sculptors, woodworkers, lacquerers, gilders and decorative metal specialists in the capital. During the Edo period, the growth of major Buddhist sects and household worship increased demand, turning Kyoto into a center for highly sophisticated altars and ritual fittings.

In Japan, a household altar is a place to address ancestors and remember the dead. Large traditional altars have become less common in compact urban homes, but smaller prayer spaces and furniture-like designs continue to adapt the practice to modern life.

A Kyoto altar is rarely the work of one craftsperson. Wood construction, carving, lacquer, gold leaf, maki-e, metal fittings and final assembly can be divided among numerous specialists. In a single cabinet, many of Kyoto’s most important craft traditions are brought together—almost like a miniature temple.

الاختلافات الفردية

نظرًا لأن كل قطعة تُصنع يدويًا بشكل مستقل، فقد تطرأ اختلافات طفيفة في اللون والنمط والشكل والملمس. وتُعد هذه الاختلافات الدقيقة من الخصائص الطبيعية للأعمال اليدوية، ما يجعل كل قطعة فريدة من نوعها حقًا. نأمل أن تستمتعوا بهذه الاختلافات الفردية كجزء من جمال الحرفية اليابانية وطابعها المميز.

مدة الإنتاج

إذا لم يكن المنتج متوفرًا في المخزون حاليًا، فقد يقوم الحرفي بتصنيعه حسب الطلب. ونظرًا إلى أن كل قطعة تُصنع يدويًا بعناية، فقد يستغرق الإنتاج عدة أشهر، وذلك حسب المنتج وجدول الحرفي. نقدر صبركم وتفهمكم.
