Japanese Buddhist Lacquered Hedai Shokendai Sutra Book Reading Stand Makie BA721 slide panel door Item weight: 1973 gramsJapanese Buddhist Lacquered Book Stand This is a vintage Japanese lacquered wooden Buddhist book stand, hedai, kyobondai, or shokendai. This lecturn style stand is coated in a glossy black lacquer with gold edges and feet. It requires some assembly, but the pieces lock together without the need for tools. There are two beautiful gold makie designs on the middle piece, one of six interlocking rings, and one of some sort of flower, perhaps a lotus bud.
