This is a masterpiece with six gourds hand-painted on olive-colored paper by a craftsman. The six gourds have been known since ancient times to mean good health and are an auspicious pattern. In addition, Kyoto folding fans with short paper and long bones are said to have long bones, making the bamboo flexible and easy to fan. The pattern is different on the front and back, so you can enjoy that as well.
