There is a set of 7 rolling of Hokkekyo by silver painting on Dark blue paper in Hagaji.

In these rolling, ruled lines are gold and words are painted by silver on dark blue paper. There is a drawings with gold on every 2nd pages. According to the notice, it is clear that these are precious data from abroad.

There is only the writing of Hagaji Nenjyugyouji which tells the origin of it, but there is another view that thinking the relationship of the Gen dynasty and Kourai, it would be a Kourai Kyo.

The boxes which put these rolling are lacquered and there are notices on bottom of the boxes. From these notices, it is clear that these boxes were made later as these used to. There are quite beautiful boxes but it is pity that the original boxes should not have been lost.
