The kakebotoke is a round metal or wooden disk with a separately made or repoussé (hammered from the rear) image of a Shinto or Buddhist deity imposed upon it. This unusually large example features a gilt repoussé image of the bodhisattva Jizo. The figure, lotus throne, and double halo are all separately modeled by hammering and are attached to the disk with small nails, a technique of the late Heian period.
