It is a square seat with legs, a balustrade on either side of the seat, and a torii-shaped backrest. Examples can be found in the Shosoin Repository, and it was used by the emperor and other high-ranking nobles at the Imperial Court during the Heian period. Those for the emperor were called goishi or goshi no throne, and those made of black persimmon were placed in the Shishinden Hall and those made of rosewood in the Seiryoden Hall, but in early modern times they came to be lacquered. A brocade or twill carpet was laid on top, and a step stool was required for a young emperor. A small goishi decorated with plain patterns was used when the crown prince came of age.

方形に脚付きで、座の左右に勾欄(こうらん)をつけ、背部に鳥居形の背もたれのある腰掛。正倉院に遺例がみられるが、平安時代に宮中で天皇をはじめ高官の公卿(くぎょう)が使用した。天皇用のものは御倚子または倚子の御座と称され、紫宸殿(ししんでん)には黒柿(くろがき)製、清涼殿(せいりょうでん)には紫檀(したん)製のものが置かれたが、近世からは漆塗装するようになった。上に錦(にしき)や綾(あや)の毯代(たんだい)を敷き、幼帝の場合には踏み台を要する。皇太子が元服のときに平文(ひょうもん)の装飾を施した小倚子を用いる。 [郷家忠臣] ©田中淑安"> 倚子 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
