There may not be many people interested in such obscure terms, but
for those scholars with an interest, I recently discovered a database
called JAANUS, Japanese Architecture and Art Net Users System.
That acronym was a bit of a stretch.

Anyway, they claim 8000 entries covering art, architecture, gardening,
painting, sculpture, iconography, etc. Lots of obscure stuff I couldn't
find anywhere else. They claim some terms have never been defined
in English before.
