日本語 [Shiomi fan (Kyoto fan)] Forest fan L size
Kyoto, Kyoto Prefecture
As the name suggests, "Mori no Uchiwa" (Forest Fans) are fans shaped like trees. There are four types, one for each season: spring, summer, autumn, and winter. The front and back are covered in softly colored washi paper, making them reversible: cherry blossom and light blue for spring, and deep green and ultramarine for summer. Kyoto fans are characterized by their flat surface, as the handle and ribs are not one piece. Taking advantage of this characteristic, part of the surface is hollowed out to express the adorable shape of wood. Furthermore, to make the fan stand upright, a special handle and base are made of wood. When you want to fan, you can remove the fan from the base, and then insert the fan back into the base to make it an interior decoration. Uchiwas have evolved from being a summer thing to being a part of everyday life.
Size: Large/L340×W260mm,
Types: East wind (cherry blossom x light blue), south wind (dark green x ultramarine blue), Nowaki (gingko color x autumn leaves color), Kogarashi (dull color x light brown)
