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.

Ethereal and refined, this Japanese folding fan captures the rhythm of the sea in motion. Pale silver fades to misty blue along the folds, where soft white waves curl and flow like brushstrokes in water. Lovely natural bamboo ribs add warmth and contrast.

There are signs of age as the edges and pleats are starting to show some wear, but still quite usable and unique.

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.
