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. 

Bright orange and shimmering gold give this folding fan a lively, celebratory feel, with small floral arrangements framed inside gilded circular medallions. The painted florals suggest seasonal garden blooms and abundance, while the contrasting speckled reverse side adds a quieter style. Black lacquered ribs give the piece a bold outline and help the warm colors stand out beautifully when displayed.

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.
