About This Design

Kinkaku-ji, the golden pavilion, Kyoto Paper Coaster

Kinkaku-ji, the golden pavilion, Kyoto Paper Coaster

Kinkakuji or the Golden Pavilion is a Zen temple in northern Kyoto whose top two floors are completely covered in gold leaf. Formally known as Rokuonji, the temple was the retirement villa of the shogun Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, and according to his will it became a Zen temple of the Rinzai sect after his death in 1408. Kinkakuji was the inspiration for the similarly named Ginkakuji (Silver Pavilion), built by Yoshimitsu's grandson, Ashikaga Yoshimasa, on the other side of the city a few decades later. Kinkakuji is an impressive structure built overlooking a large pond, and is the only building left of Yoshimitsu's former retirement complex. It has burned down numerous times throughout its history including twice during the Onin War, a civil war that destroyed much of Kyoto; and once again more recently in 1950 when it was set on fire by a fanatic monk. The present structure was rebuilt in 1955.

Product was ordered just before Christmas on the 12th and was received in the UK in time so service was great. The print was very good, what expected to be solid mats - these were card like pub beermats but they were still well made and made a lovely present. Very good print loved it
