He and I have reached agreement on dealing. If you have any questions, please let me know.

By the way, these pictures (two pictures below) are brand new his works.
AMIDA SANZON RAIGO.

According to Buddhism Sutra (Kammuryoju Kyo), when we died, Amida Nyorai comes for us to take us to Gokuraku Jodo.
* Gokuraku Jodo (literal translation : extremely happy pure land. It's close to Christian Heaven).

From that reason, AMIDA is believed in many people. Especially, ancient people believed that AMIDA take us to Gokuraku Jodo as riding on their clouds from far west.

AMIDA-SANZON-RAIGO were painted too much as expression of their imagination.(for example)


This time, Buddhism artisan, M. Yamaguchi has expressed AMIDA-SANZON-RAIGO as three-dimensional.
It's super sophisticated works!!

The timber is Kiso-Hinoki (Kiso Japanese cypress is the super high-rank timber).
Production period is one year.
Price : 15,900.00 USD / 12,000.00 EUR (It's a little cheap price than generally market prices.)

The picture describes extinct Japanese habit.
Though it's extinct habits, Koushin-ko was held till Edo period (till 1868) in Japan.
Koushin-ko was Japanese habit which carried out in every two months.

Ancient people believed that there is a bug called "Sanshi" inside own body.
This bug reports people's past action to the God in Koushin day's night (every two months).
That's why, people that feared God's punishment never slept all night. They used to talk or drink through the night not to let bug go to the God.

There was a habit like that till 1868 in Japan. Then people appealed to SHOMEN KONGO for mercy.

Though Japanese who knows that are reducing, it's rare Buddhism image. Because the habit itself is extinct.

This hanging scroll have some damages or stains, because it's old one. Please recognize it. This hanging scroll is handwriting.
It have historically value!!

IT'S RARE!!
Currently unavailable!
It's rarely chance to get it!!!
I think that Buddhism is a near philosophy rather than a religion.
This item is miniature art (whether you have nothing to believe in Buddhism or not).

TENUGUI is often introduced to tools as hand towel, but actually TENUGUI is not only hand towel but is tools that have various uses. For example, wrap things, roll own head up when they take part in festival...
It is TENUGUI that not to sew up an edge tightly, but it would not become loose if you would wash it well.

It's desperate measure by persecuted Japanese Christians
From Toyotomi regime to Tokugawa shogunate (1590 - 1874), believing Christianity was prohibited. Old Japanese Christian is called "Kirishitan". Due to the regulations, Japanese Christian had camouflaged to believe.

Though it's Fudoh Myo-Oh of Buddhism image and the Sanskrit outwardly, this Sanskrit has no meaning. In fact, it was letting 'J' of Jesus be Sanskrit-like and it was blended to Fudoh.

This item is Tokyotrad's Original Item!!
It's O.K. that you think as one of old art design. This item is not related with religious activities.
You can arrange it to tapestry or into frame. Of course, you can use this as Tenugui (hand towel).
This picture is original Hanging Scroll (made of Japanese paper) in Edo period. I have sold some antique Hidden Chistian's Fudoh at eBay. Sometimes, I can get this antique. Because I have the official license of antique dealer of Japan #441370000506.
If you want antique one, please let me know.
This picture (right) is Eikoku-ji temple at Nagoya. You can see many Kirishitan's item at Kirishitan Museum in this temple.
Those area before Buddhism temple was execution ground to execute Kirishitan mainly (Because believing Christianity was prohibited from 1590 to 1874). Tokugawa Mitsutomo, the lord of those area, made decision to abolish execution ground, and he ordered to establish Eikoku-ji to hold a service for the victim's soul.

Yakusugi is limited resources.
Cutting a living Yakusugi is prohibited. Because of The law of ban for cutting Yakusugi was enacted by Japanese government in 1970. But using buried or collapsed Yakusugi by typhoon is allowed. And The whole of Yaku isle. was registered as natural World Heritage site by UNESCO in 1993.

The reason of expensive.
"HANDCRAFTED by Special craftsmen" and
"Limited resources YAKUSUGI"

Please See Also this our URL, there is detailed explanation
http://www.tokyotrad.com/ebay/yaku_explain.htm

That's why only the limited stores can sell them. IT'S INVALUABLE MATERIAL!! WE'RE TREATING AUTHENTIC ONE!!

As this timber can't be steady supplied,
it's RARE item!
Because material itself is precious and not cheap, it would be high-priced. But I think that it's never expensive shopping.

- ENLARGE -
I've reached an agreement about transaction.

The Buddhism artisan: MIKIYA YAMAGUCHI

He is newcomer Buddhism craftsman who is expected to.
All his works are made of Japanese cypress from Kiso district. Kiso Japanese cypress is the super high-rank timber, this timber is used for shrine, temple and high-class Japanese traditional hotels, too.
His sculptures are looks young and has contemporary faces.


His works were paid by some temples. So we can see them at there.

He is particular about "Made in Japan", and he's making it. That's why the price is not so cheap (it's keeping high quality that Buddhism temples are buying).

All handmade, and all wood (no using a metal such as nails)

(Expected price is 3000 - 6000 USD on an average.)

It won't be long to sell it!! Please look forward to!!


compare low price (made in China) with his works.
And other, Japanese cypress is beautiful white wood, but Chinese one is not so. From that reason, Chinese one is bleached with two chemicals.
