I purchased a few years ago a hand scroll that was custom made. Here is my previous request. http://www.orientaloutpost.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3786&p=10361&hilit=makimono#p10361 It was not completely what I was looking for and some the requests I made where not followed that being said the qualit...

What is the status on 13437

any update on the order?

I am was wondering the status of my order 13437

Thats a good point um well I know they appear two tone the nice one in my first post really just seems like its the back of the silk. We can try the two tone but the normally when writing the silk section is just rolled and placed at one side. So i think just white would be fine. The silk attaching ...

Ok great I submit the order today for the sample one. thanks again for all your work on this.

Okay will order a scroll my question is though what do i need to specify in the request to make sure I get the proper configuration if I use the way I ordered the first time wont that result in the same scroll I got before? Just wanting to make sure before I order it should I include this conversati...

Ya i figured it would be crazy around this time of year. Wow they called you back in huh crazy. Thanks for getting back to me with all that stuff going on. I would be willing to order 10 or more. I will get 10 minimum regardless that seems reasonable. I would love a sample first however. So let me k...

Just wondering if you have heard anything as to the possibilities?

Haven't heard back from you yet I know its the holidays just wondering what the status is. I again would be willing to ship my mini makimono as a reference tool for you if you would like.

Actually full length is not necessary for the silk to be the full length most Japanese scrolls only have silk on the first part before the paper typically no silk backing down the length of the paper. The knobs where great. The brown keyline looks great the one I have is gold but honestly I like the...

I have received the hand scroll I ordered it's not quite what I was looking for. Don't get me wrong the quality is fine and its very nice but I am looking for a Japanese style makimono. Below are some pictures with my comments I would love to be able to order some more if we where able to correct th...

I think for now I am good it is nice to know what the average size is as after this order I may want to go with something wider.

Ok I some better measurements now. I was wrong about the width its 180mm wide for paper. I will probably go with the length of 270cm. Is the width a normal thing or will that be an issue.

That sounds great the knobs on that thing is a little cheap so wood will be fine. I will order one tomorrow so I can show it to the people that are wanting them. Thank you so much for your help.

do the hand scrolls use the accent lines and would the be the edging seen in the picture above?

Ok I would like to order one to start off as I will be ordering for several people. I will put in the order shortly.

I would like to see about having some Japanese style makimonos made around 10 or so this is a pitcutre of one I picked up in Kyoto last year. http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs1168.snc4/151090_1616219137201_1588036269_1382616_2167506_n.jpg It is around 8 feet give or take about 12 inches...
