Kocho Chapter - Tale of Genji Heian Period iPhone Case
Description
Fluttering across lacquered air, five attendants unfurl in elegant procession—robed and winged in the hues of Heian daylight. Shimmering not in pigment as metaphor: vermilion, ash-rose, celadon, and indigo, folded into geometric silence. This is the Kocho chapter embodied—a silk-and-paper ballet drawn from “The Tale of Genji,” where gift-bearing figures drift toward the Empress like floating verses. Above them, stylized cranes suspend the moment—mid-flight, mid-thought—framing a ceremonial garden where cherry blossoms fall and gold cloud bands curl like incense.
You hold a Heian court ceremonial motif, transcribed in lamé and lacquer. The rich garden setting, complete with delicate yamabuki blooms, whispers an ethereal narrative of courtly spectacle and romantic symbolism. A vessel of romantic Japanese historical art, echoing Genji’s crafted spectacle—where performance was politics and desire dressed in seasonal bloom. This is a Genji art relic for those fluent in yamabuki and butterfly attendant protocol.
Blending Kunisada II ukiyo-e with the precision of Tosa Mitsunobu's Genji art, this case is a classical Japanese accessory and Heian period aesthetic delight—a stage where poetry sings, soars, alights and inspires.
