Japanese Paper Fan Akabeko and Kanzashi printed 1980s Showa
About the Item
This is a fan which was made in Japan around 1980s in Showa era.
This material is Paper and wood and there are little threads with cotton on the side.
Both sides are same designs of Akabeko and Kanzashi.
Japanese fans are made of paper on a bamboo frame, usually with a design painted on them. In addition to folding fans (ōgi), the non-bending fans (uchiwa) are popular and commonplace. The fan is primarily used for fanning oneself in hot weather. The uchiwa fan subsequently spread to other parts of Asia, including Burma, Thailand, Cambodia and Sri Lanka, and such fans are still used by Buddhist monks as "ceremonial fans". (Wikipedia)
Akabeko is a legendary cow from the Aizu region of Japan, who inspired a traditional toy. In legend, Akabeko the cow was present at the building the Enzō-ji temple of Yanaizu in the ninth century, and became a permanent fixture there, with some stories saying that the animal was turned to stone.
