Japanese Fan for Women, 14.5x8.2 In Silk Bamboo Hand Fan Foldable

Why we make it this way

A silk leaf moves meaningfully more air than a paper one, and it does not crease into uselessness after a season in a bag. The frame is bamboo, which keeps it light enough that a long wedding or a hot commute does not tire your wrist.

Closed it is 8.2 inches, which fits a handbag or an inside pocket; open it is 14.5 inches across. It is as much a decorative object as a practical one and it ends up being used for both. Open and close it slowly — the ribs are the part that eventually fails, and only from being snapped.
