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.

Soft and understated, this Japanese folding fan features a warm ivory field with a subtle metallic border. The gentle shimmer recalls dawn mist on temple eaves or the glint of moonlight over paper screens. The blank cream-colored paper is a perfect canvas for an artist looking for a new project. 

There are some mottling spots, but still quite usable and ready for an artistic upgrade.

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