Note: "Tsukuri mono ["made-up props"] are constructed specifically for a performance...These are symbolic, built of bamboo and often wrapped in white cloth, and occasionally decorated with artificial trees or flowering branches."----Historical Dictionary of Japanese Traditional Theatre by Samuel L.
