Introduction

Kakejiku (hanging scrolls), a form of traditional Japanese culture, has long been cherished as an art form with its unique beauty and elegance. However, in modern daily life, opportunities to incorporate kakejiku as an everyday item are gradually decreasing.

In this article, we will introduce the appeal of “original kakejiku,” the features of “Bes Kakeji,” the production process, and more in detail. Why not transform your space into something special with a kakejiku that embodies your individuality and sentiments?

What Makes Original Kakejiku So Special?

Original kakejiku, while incorporating traditional Japanese culture, holds many charms as a special artwork that reflects individual preferences and personality. Among these, the following three features stand out most prominently.

　- One-of-a-Kind Design 
An original kakejiku achieves a sense of exclusivity that mass-produced products simply cannot offer. By incorporating your name, a memorable date, favorite words, or a theme-based design, a kakejiku that is truly one of a kind in the world is created. Moreover, the choice of materials such as washi (Japanese paper) and silk, as well as color combinations, can be freely customized. By paying attention to every detail, you can truly obtain “your very own piece.”

　- Art That Enhances Your Space 
Some may have the impression that kakejiku are only meant for Japanese-style rooms, but by giving them a modern design, they can become items that harmonize with various spaces such as living rooms, offices, and shops. The unique presence that a kakejiku carries elegantly refines the entire space and serves as an effective accent for interior design. The ability to enjoy the beautiful harmony of Japanese and Western aesthetics is a charm unique to original kakejiku.

　- Perfect for Commemorative Items and Gifts 
Original kakejiku are also chosen as gifts for loved ones and commemorative items for special milestones. They demonstrate their value on all occasions, from weddings and 60th birthday celebrations to corporate anniversaries. The warmth of handwritten characters and designs leaves a deep impression on the recipient’s heart. An original kakejiku is a one-of-a-kind gift that not only conveys visual beauty but also effectively communicates the sender’s thoughts and feelings.

The Kakejiku Production Process

“Bes Kakeji” has prepared an easy-to-follow process so that even first-time customers can order with peace of mind. Under the careful support of a dedicated staff member, let us create your ideal kakejiku together.

　1. Consultation and Design Direction 
We take the time to listen carefully to your wishes. We will ask about points such as:
– The theme or message you want to incorporate into the kakejiku
– The intended space (Japanese-style room, living room, office, etc.)
– Design direction such as traditional Japanese or modern style
Based on these, our dedicated staff will help you solidify your vision together.

　2. Design Proposal 
Based on the information gathered during the consultation, we create a design proposal. We can offer various styles suited to your preferences, including calligraphy, painting, ink wash art, and abstract art. Additionally, details such as the type of paper, the fabric for wrapping the kakejiku, and the border color and design can all be customized. The design proposal can be revised, so you can be as particular as you like until completion.

　3. Material and Specification Selection 
You select the materials to be used for the kakejiku (washi, silk, specialty materials, etc.). Each material has its own unique texture and characteristics that significantly affect the finished product. We also select the wrapping fabric and border design for the kakejiku, determining specifications that consider overall harmony.

　4. Artisan Craftsmanship 
Once the design is finalized, production by skilled artisans begins. All processes, including drawing, mounting, border attachment, and more, are done entirely by hand. While preserving traditional techniques, modern elements are incorporated to carefully create a one-of-a-kind kakejiku.

　5. Completion and Delivery 
Once the kakejiku is completed, it undergoes a final inspection before delivery. The standard delivery time is approximately 2 to 4 weeks after the design is finalized, but express service is also available. We take great care in packaging as well, offering gift wrapping and dedicated cases, making it ideal as a present.
