A memorial tablet is a Buddhist implement used to enshrine and honor the spirit of an individual. It is considered an important item for ancestral veneration.
The Buddhist name (kaimyo) is inscribed on the front of the tablet.
Even without a Buddhist name, a suitable tablet can be created using the deceased's secular name.
If you wish to have your Buddhist name or other inscriptions hand-written, we will do so with care, free of charge, rather than using a machine. Please refer to the last image for examples.
After winning the auction, please provide the Buddhist name you wish to have written, the posthumous title (e.g., Koji for men, Daishi for women), the date of death, the secular name (full name), and the age at death. We will then hand-write it for you free of charge. Of course, you are also welcome to purchase the tablet alone.
The date of death, secular name (full name), and age at death will also be hand-written free of charge.
In the Kanto region, the Buddhist name and date of death are inscribed on the front of the tablet, and the secular name and age at death are inscribed on the back.
In the Tokai and western Japan regions, only the Buddhist name is inscribed on the front of the tablet, and the secular name and age at death are inscribed on the back.
There are regional differences. If you already have an ancestral memorial tablet, the layout will be made to match it.
