Kyoto Craftsman Series 596 (22cm, slight variations are possible) Made by a Kyoto fan craftsman who also works with famous fan shops such as Hakuchikudo, Kyosendo, Yamani, and Maibunsen-do. We offer these directly at a significantly lower price than retail stores. Please rest assured that these items are carefully handcrafted by artisans. This is not a simple item with fabric attached to bamboo. Paper fans, which go through as many as 80 detailed processes, are very valuable and a testament to the craftsmanship. Reference price: Approximately 3,500 - 4,000 yen (tax included) It has an elegant and subtle fragrance. *Basically, consider this a one-of-a-kind item. *Please be sure to read the profile for bulk discounts. The first and second photos show the front and back. The third and fourth photos are close-ups of the front pattern. The fifth photo shows the box it will be shipped in. The sixth photo shows a crepe storage bag (black) available for an additional 500 yen (suggested retail price 1,200 yen including tax). Please note: To make the fan easier to close and to improve the fit when closed, heat is applied to the "fan bones" at both ends during the finishing process, bending them inward. In this process, "paper wrinkles" may occur on the inside of the "fan bones," but this is a characteristic unique to fans made by hand using natural materials (paper and bamboo). Thank you for your understanding.
