Kakemono (Kakemono) is a traditional Japanese scroll that features calligraphy or painting. They are commonly used in houses, temples or tea houses as decorative elements. Kakemono can play an important role in tea ceremonies, where they often hang in "Tokonoma", a special alk for decorative elements.
Kakemono appeared in Japan under the influence of Chinese culture during the Tang Dynasty (618-907). These elongated vertical scrolls were a frequent form of how calligraphy and painting were displayed in East Asia.
Modern Kakemono are often used as a mark of respect or commemoration during various events such as religious holidays, public events or special exhibitions. In addition, they can be used as an important part of decor in Japanese restaurants or hotels to create a traditional atmosphere.
