About the Item

This is a fan which was made in Japan around 1980s in Showa era. This fan is made with bamboo and paper. It is hand painted. Dimensions: 3 x 46 x H27 cm 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)
