This listing is for 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. 

Softly dramatic, this Japanese folding fan features black floral lace layered over a pale fabric backing, creating a shadowed effect that highlights the scrolling vines and tiny blossoms woven throughout the design. The semi-sheer lacework gives the piece a romantic vintage feel, while floral motifs traditionally symbolize beauty, renewal, and fleeting elegance.

These vintage Japanese fans are wonderful as wall accents or used as props in dance, photography, or ceremony. Beautiful for home or office display or as a thoughtful gift.

The wooden display holder is not included but these are available from many other shops online.
