Thank you for viewing. This is an item offered for sale to clear out the inventory of my creations. Although some time has passed since their creation, they have been stored in a place away from direct sunlight. Please carefully review the photos and description to assess the condition of the items (including any age-related changes) before considering a purchase. First scroll: "掬水月在手" (Kyokusui Getsu te ni ari) - "The moon is in my hand when I scoop up the water." Second scroll: "弄花香満衣" (Roka Kou man i) - "The fragrance fills my clothes when I play with the flowers." 【Meaning of the words】 These are Zen phrases taken from a Chinese poem by the Tang dynasty poet Yu Liangshi. They represent beautiful natural scenes and mean **"When you scoop up water, the moon's reflection is in your hand, and when you play with flowers, their fragrance fills your clothes."** Just as the beauty of the moon and flowers naturally become a part of oneself without seeking them, truth exists everywhere, and it shows a state of being one with nature. 【Features of the artwork】 I strongly emphasized power and an unbroken flow, writing with a brushstroke that combines elegance and dynamism. Displaying the two scrolls together creates a deep atmosphere and a sense of dignity in the alcove. Please enjoy the power created by the brushwork and the shades of ink, unique to a one-of-a-kind, hand-written piece, which cannot be expressed in printed materials. 【Recommended scenes】 For tea ceremony practice/tea gatherings: By hanging the two scrolls side-by-side in the alcove of a tea room, you can create a dignified setting that expresses a sense of unity with nature and the Zen state of mind. As seasonal decorations: Both phrases are elegant and can be used year-round. Especially related to water and flowers, they are also suitable decorations for the spring and summer seasons. For decorating Japanese-style rooms and entrances: These are short poems depicting beautiful scenes that blend well with modern Japanese spaces. 【Product Details】 Calligraphy: Handwritten by the seller (original) Creation: One-of-a-kind (set of two scrolls) Size: Short scroll (approx. 36cm tall × 6cm wide) × 2 pieces Condition: New, unused I will carefully pack and deliver it with care. ※ Due to the hand-written nature of the work, there may be variations in ink density and blurring that are not found in mass-produced items. Please understand these as part of the artwork's individuality before purchasing. #KyokusuiGetsuTeNiAri #RokaKouManI #TeaCeremony #TeaUtensils #ShortScroll #ZenPhrase #Calligraphy #Handwritten #Original #OneOfAKind #JapaneseRoom #Alcove #Pair #SeasonalDecoration #ModernJapanese
