Hannyaji Temple: Reliquary Cabinet (detail)
木漆舍利廚子
日本
日本十三世紀作品。木質，通身髹黑漆，由寶蓋、廚身及台座組成。寶蓋為廡殿頂式。廚身設兩扇對開門扉，內板壁嵌裝半浮雕錘鍱金銅寶珠形。板壁下方設二重仰蓮瓣形蓮座，上托三股金剛杵，兩側配置祥龍，均仰首捧珠；杵上方亦有一蓮座，上托火焰形水晶寶珠。寶珠內分隔四層，每層各供奉一粒佛舍利。廚子下部台座呈長方形，分二層，上層為須彌座，底附四矮足。
自古以來，佛教祈雨儀式頗為盛行，此廚內奉中國唐代（618～907）不空譯《大雲輪請雨經》修法之主尊龍王，帶有濃厚密教色彩。雙龍搭配，據說源於《妙法蓮華經》卷四〈提婆達多品〉，龍女以寶珠敬奉世尊，表已證果圓滿。
