The unique charm of Beijing fans: a combination of multiple uses and exquisite craftsmanship The characteristics of Kyoto fans are not only that they are made in Japan from raw materials to workmanship, but also that they are made with exquisite craftsmanship and have a variety of uses. They are not only a good companion for cooling off in the summer, but can also be used as etiquette, socializing, art, and decorations to show a person's unique taste. Kyoto fans are rich in variety and their designs are exquisite and elegant. The production process is complicated, starting with the strict selection of high-quality bamboo, going through multiple processes such as making fan ribs and fan paper, and then to painting, folding the fan and final processing. Each link needs to be completed by skilled craftsmen by hand, embodying the craftsmen's efforts and skills. In particular, this fan uses the "katazuri" technique, a unique "make-up hanging" technique that gives the fan a rich style and texture. The craftsman will cover the pattern paper cut into the shape of the pattern on the fan, and then use a brush to paint or spray the paint to accurately and delicately present the pattern. The more complex the pattern and the richer the color, the more pattern paper is needed, and the process is more complicated. Because each step is done bit by bit by hand,** each fan will show unique individual differences, and the color presentation and subtle changes in brushstrokes have become its unique charm. There are many types of Kyoto fans. Depending on their uses and occasions, they can be divided into summer fans for daily use, dance fans for dance performances, Shimai fans used in Noh (with gorgeous and exquisite designs), and fans used in traditional ceremonies. In Japanese culture, Kyoto fans are often used as gifts, such as during the New Year, as they symbolize "opening" and represent prosperity and hope. Folding fans are also called "suehiro", and the shape of the fan bones extending when they are unfolded symbolizes that future development will become broader and broader, and is a symbol of good luck.
