This silk brocaded uchishiki showcases various auspicious Buddhist motifs. The clouds, laden with religious symbolism from Buddhist and Taoist origins, are a representation of divine authority and often appear as five-colored clouds signifying a Buddha descending to earth. The peacock symbolizes dignity and beauty, the phoenix embodies virtues like duty, correct behavior, humanity, and reliability, while the crane signifies longevity.

The white silk lining features kanji figures indicating the initial dedication in the year 1854 (Ansei 1) and a rededication in 1890 (Meiji 22). It's in good condition, aside from several tiny round pinholes and a light stain in one corner. The uchishiki measures 26 inches by 26 inches (66 cm x 66 cm).
