Kanazawa gold leaf Folding Fan is a handcrafted fan made by Hakuichi, with meticulous attention to detail in every stage from the fan surface and ribs to the final assembly all crafted by skilled artisans. In ancient Japan, darkness was a constant presence. Unlike today, where lights shine 24 hours a day, the world would have plunged into near-complete darkness once night fell. Within that darkness, a full moon must have appeared far more beautiful than what we see now. This folding fan is inspired by the full moon as it was seen by the people of ancient Japan, expressing an aesthetic sensibility engraved in our very DNA. Its bold design features gold leaf on a deep black background. The technique of applying large sheets of gold leaf to an item that opens and closes like a fan is a unique specialty of Hakuichi. Each piece is handmade, so no two fans are alike — each features unique cracks and wrinkles in the gold leaf. A new type of washi (Japanese paper) with a shimmering, glossy finish is now used, giving the fan an even more luxurious appearance. Learn More

This design evokes the image of the moon reflected on the sea, gently swaying with the waves. Gold leaf, reminiscent of stars, is also scattered around the fan to depict a fantastical summer night scene. Each fan is handcrafted, so the cracks and creases in the gold leaf are unique and no two are exactly alike. Learn More
