This elegant Japanese paper fan is handmade by Kurikawa Shoten, a legendary artisan maker. The fan‘s surface is coated with shibu (persimmon tannin), enhancing the paper’s durability, adding a unique sheen, and protecting it from insect damage. Over time, the fan‘s color deepens, creating a richer patina that reflects its long-lasting beauty.

Handcrafted Japanese washi paper
Homemade persimmon tannin lacquer
