Description
A summer folding fan that alleviates the summer heat and looks refreshing when used. This fan, crafted by the renowned fan maker Iba-sen, features a thin gauze fabric carefully tailored to a sturdy 25-ken frame.Iba-sen is a long-established shop specializing in folding fans and hand fans, founded in Tenshō 18 (1590) by Ima-ya Kanzaemon, a merchant from Hamamatsu who moved to Edo alongside Tokugawa Ieyasu.At the time of its founding, the company was located in Horie-cho, Nihonbashi, Edo, where it dealt in washi paper and bamboo crafts. From the late Edo period onward, it began handling ukiyo-e prints featuring fans, spreading the name “Iba-sen” as a publisher for artists such as the first Toyokuni, Kuniyoshi, and Hiroshige.These folding fans, which combine the techniques of two long-established Japanese companies, are lightweight yet sturdy, ensuring they will last for many years. They also come with a special fan case made from matching fabric.
