Vintage Japanese White Marble Scroll Weight Purple Tassle Kakejiku Fuchin

Vintage Japanese c1950's marble fuchin or scroll end weights with silk tassels. They extend about 10" and the beads are almost 1 1/2" in diameter.

Fuchin are elegant marble scroll hangers used to weigh down the ends of traditional Japanese hanging scrolls, adding both functionality and beauty to the display. Crafted from polished marble, these small, weighty ornaments keep the scroll taut and balanced, preventing it from curling while enhancing its visual presentation. With their smooth texture and understated design, fuchin not only preserve the scroll but also lend a sense of refined sophistication to any art or calligraphy piece, harmonizing traditional aesthetics with timeless craftsmanship.
