Kakebutsu (or kakebotoke) are flat-backed hollow-cast bronze figures, often gilt, of the Buddha, Kwannon, Fudo Myo-o, Bishamon-ten and other Buddhist figures. They would originally have been attached, either singly or severally, to a wooden disk covered in skin-bronze, with a hanging ring on either side of the top, by which it would have been suspended between two of the pillars inside a temple.
