Bring timeless Japanese elegance into your home with this authentic 1970s handmade Japanese kakejiku wall hanging, sourced directly from a Japanese Government Auction.

This exceptional vintage kakejiku (掛軸) features a beautifully composed scene of delicate plum blossoms (梅 / Ume) blooming beneath a luminous full moon—one of Japan’s most beloved seasonal motifs symbolizing renewal, perseverance, hope, and the arrival of spring.

Expertly hand-crafted during Japan’s Shōwa period, this artwork is hand-signed by the artist and bears a traditional red seal stamp, confirming its authenticity as an original Japanese art piece.

The upper brocade features the embroidered character 寿 (Kotobuki)—a traditional Japanese symbol representing longevity, celebration, happiness, and auspicious blessings. This makes the scroll especially suitable for New Year displays, tea ceremony rooms, tokonoma alcoves, meditation spaces, or refined Japanese interiors.

Crafted on high-quality silk textile with intricate woven detailing, rich natural tones, and elegant mounting, this one-of-a-kind scroll captures the quiet beauty of traditional Japanese aesthetics.

Included with the scroll is its original storage box, adding both collectible value and provenance.

A rare and meaningful acquisition for collectors of Japanese antiques, kakejiku, Asian fine art, zen décor, tea ceremony objects, and vintage silk wall art.

About the Plum Blossom Motif
