The shrine side depicts \u003ci\u003eOokunitama Shrine\u003c\/i\u003e, with the tree labeled as the \"Sacred Tree,\" evoking protection, spiritual strength, and a connection to Japan's Shinto traditions, while the red artist's seal adds an authentic finishing touch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThere are signs of age with light blemishes visible on the shrine and tree side, see last photo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese vintage Japanese fans are wonderful as wall accents or used as props in dance, photography, or ceremony.
