[A long-established fan retailer] Hosekiken is a brand that combines traditional artisanal techniques with modern sensibilities, perfect for those seeking individuality.

Its products are sold at numerous department stores, including Ginza Kyukodo, Isetan, Hankyu Department Store, and Takashimaya, making it a luxury brand beloved by many for many years. [Also makes a great gift] It makes a wonderful gift for Father's Day and other anniversaries, as well as a gift for loved ones or a treat for yourself.
[Takosen (Fan of Happiness)] Hoseikiken has developed the first cloth fan in the history of folding fans, a fan made with more than 60 ribs, including the main ribs on both sides, realized through advanced design and artisanal skill. Fans made with as many ribs as 60, 65, or 70 are called "Takosen." In addition to being visually beautiful, they also combine functional beauty with smooth opening and closing, creating a wing-like breeze thanks to the flexibility of the bamboo. Also, in keeping with the origin of our company name, the main rib is the parent and the middle rib is the child (many), representing the "ideal image" of a prosperous family.
[Design] The fabric for the fan is carefully selected from thin yet durable polyester. Its high-density weave makes it ideal for folding fans, preventing wind from passing through. Each hand-painted folding fan is unique.
[Product size] Box size: 264x115x26mm, Fan length: approx. 210mm [Material] Fan surface: polyester, Fan ribs: bamboo
[Handling Instructions and Precautions] Because fans are made from cloth, paper, and bamboo, they will wear out with use, regardless of price. The lifespan of a fan varies from person to person, with some people using them for 10 years and others purchasing a new one every year. Opening and closing a fan too quickly with one hand can cause extreme damage and breakage. Please note that repairs are not possible in this case. Before use, be sure to read the "How to Handle a Fan" instructions included in the fan bag and use it with care.
