Reply to "Japanese Fans"

Thank you Teo for your wonderful images.
They are absolutely beautiful.


The folding fan, sensu, or ogi seems to have been a Japanese invention, which originated in Kyoto about 670 AD. It is made of paper and bamboo. Those made with white paper were used by the aristocracy to inscribe love poems and the fan was then presented to the beloved; devoted Buddhists used the same fans to inscribe Sutras, so that they were always at hand.

I am very touched by your reply.

Love,
yoko
