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. 

This Japanese folding fan has a cool early dawn palette of light sky blue, accented with small stitched yellow stars that almost twinkle, scattered across the lightweight fabric surface. The semi-sheer fabric creates a delicate translucency when opened, while the embroidered celestial motifs add subtle texture and evoke calm, quiet early mornings.

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.
