No. 1 The Enso

This calligraphy scroll features the all-encompassing Enso - Zen symbol of enlightenment, elegance and harmony. The Enso circle is accompanied by the haiku below, by Kobayashi Issa:

When cherry-blossoms
Scatter...
No regrets.

Kakemonos - usually placed in a niche as one enters the house [ t o k o n o m a ] - are meant to encourage one towards reflection on the current season and introspection as well - perhaps before savouring a cup of tea.

The scroll is handpainted and handwritten with ink and entirely handmade.
