Thank you for viewing! ٩(^o^)۶ ❤️ Price negotiations are welcome! ⭐️ First come, first served! ⭐️ Initial defect guarantee included! This is a Suehiro (folding fan) that must be carried when attending weddings or celebrations in traditional Japanese attire such as Kuro-tomesode (black formal kimono) or Iro-tomesode (colored formal kimono). It uses "cashew lacquer," which has the same components as lacquer, giving it a luxurious and refined feel. The sides are decorated with auspicious Makie (sprinkled picture) style patterns. This Suehiro is perfect for celebratory occasions. "Kyo-sensu" (Kyoto fan) refers to fans made using materials from the Kyoto area and created by skilled artisans in each manufacturing process. These Kyo-sensu are not only beautiful but also fit comfortably in the user's hand. Use it by inserting it between your obi (sash) and obiage (sash tie) on the left side of your chest, with the top half visible. When greeting, take out the Suehiro with your right hand, place your left hand under the Suehiro, bow, and return it to its original position. This series of actions is performed each time you bow. The name "Suehiro" comes from the fan's shape, which widens towards the end, symbolizing the wish for lasting happiness. Also, during the engagement ceremony, the fan is used as a threshold to sit on, signifying a respectful approach to the other party. It is considered a breach of etiquette to open the Suehiro and fan yourself with it. Basically, it should always be kept closed. Also, Suehiro with Tame-nuri (lacquer technique) cannot be used with Kuro-tomesode. Please use it when wearing Iro-tomesode, Homongi (visiting kimono), or Iromuji (solid color kimono). There is a dent in the case, but there is no problem with the product. ❤️ We have many other wonderful products for sale too! ↓ Further discounts are available for bulk purchases (=^x^=)↓ #Panapana's Shop Management Number: 18/1294-$$880 [Ai Ai] For Tomesode, Gold and Silver Makie Suehiro, Boxed, Kyoto Fan, Made in Japan
