This listing is a vintage Japanese folding fan (sensu in Japanese). See videos below on how the paper version of these fans are made - it's quite an elaborate and precise process. Dance fans are larger, wider, and sturdier than ones made for everyday use.
Vibrant yet understated, this orange Japanese folding fan features graceful cream-colored fronds that sweep across its folds as if caught in motion. The design balances energy and simplicity, with its warm color recalling sunset tones and its flowing leaves lending a sense of calm movement. Crafted with pleated paper and natural bamboo ribs. The pattern is the same on both sides.
These vintage Japanese fans are wonderful as a wall accent or used as props in dance, photography, or ceremony. Beautiful for home or office display or as a thoughtful gift.
