Provenance: southern Japanese collection acquired on our last acquisitions trip.

The word Buddha means to awaken, and so the sound of Japanese temple bells is central to Buddhist practice. The enchanting sound of these temple instruments is reverberating and long-lasting and would likely be used as a prelude to sutra chanting services inside the temple or shrine.
