# Japanese-Style Folding Fan — Japanese Cotton, Bamboo & Fuji / Wave Motifs

### _Light as Air, Inspired by Japan_

A delicate expression of Japanese aesthetics, this folding fan combines **fine Japanese cotton fabric, natural bamboo ribs, and traditional Japanese-inspired imagery**.

The lightweight, semi-sheer fabric allows subtle light to pass through the surface, giving the fan a soft, layered appearance when opened. Natural bamboo ribs provide a warm contrast to the delicate textile, creating a piece that feels both refined and tactile.

Available in two distinctive designs—**Mount Fuji** and **Japanese Waves**—each brings a different expression of Japanese landscape into an everyday object.

## ✦ **Design & Culture**

### **Wave — The Rhythm of Water**

Inspired by the flowing rhythm of Japanese wave imagery, the Wave design combines deep blue tones with delicate traditional-style motifs.

The repeating movement of the waves gives the fan a sense of motion, while the lightweight fabric keeps the overall appearance calm and elegant.

**A quiet interpretation of the sea, captured in motion.**

### **Fuji — A Symbol of Japan**

The Mount Fuji design brings one of Japan's most recognizable landscapes into the fan's delicate textile surface.

The mountain, surrounded by subtle traditional motifs, creates a composition that feels distinctly Japanese without becoming overly ornate.

## ✦ **Light, Airy & Delicate**

The fan surface is made from **fine Japanese cotton fabric** with a lightweight, semi-transparent quality.

When held against light, the fabric reveals a subtle sense of depth and translucency, allowing the printed design to feel softer and more dimensional.

Combined with the natural bamboo ribs, the result is a fan that feels **light in the hand, elegant when opened, and beautiful enough to display**.
