A part of the mounting of a hanging scroll *kakemono 掛物. The chūberi or chūmawashi 中廻し, also called chū 中, are those portions of cloth which run alongside the honshi 本紙 (area of the painting or calligraphy) on all four sides, above and below the thin horizontal borders *ichimonji 一文字 and to the right and left of the honshi paper. The upper portion can be called chū-no-ue 中の上 and the lower portion can be called chū-no-shita 中の下. Strips that border the honshi to the right and left are called heri 縁, or hashira 柱. The lower chūberi will generally be double the height of the upper ichimonji, and the upper chūberi will be twice the height of the lower chūberi. Cloth used for the chūberi may include gold and damask. Figured silk or plain woven cloth are also used; the quality of the cloth is usually somewhat lower than that used for the ichimonji.
