IBUSHI: MADARA
This folding fan boasts its own unique speckled design created with layers of silver leaf.
The focus of IBUSHI fans is on the silver leaf, which has been aged to create exquisite colors. This effect is achieved through the silver’s reaction with the sulfur in the air. When it reaches the point of light no longer being able to pass through, it looks black to the human eye.
Due to its unique muted shine and how long it takes for the color to mature, the Japanese word for oxidised silver, or "ibushi gin," became the inspiration for another meaning: someone who may seem plain but possesses real ability. Expressing the values of the Japanese, this word is also rooted in our daily lives.
With the IBUSHI lineup, you can enjoy both the colors that emerge during the tarnishing process and the final oxidized silver hue. As the color has been achieved by taking advantage of the material's special properties, rather than artificial methods, each and every fan is slightly different; an exact copy can never be created.
Use it to cool yourself down or to decorate a room.
Standard Design
An orthodox shape used in Japan. The design features a large paper section, drawing attention to the pattern used and the textures of the materials. Due to the proportions of the paper, there are relatively few spokes, guaranteeing a great amount of air fanned.
When closed, the fan’s shape becomes slim and clean. Its compact size also means that it that won't get in the way of other items inside your bag.
Details
Crafted by a team of traditional artisans who each specialize in steps from folding the paper to inserting the spokes, this elegant handmade piece has an air of luxury only found in the folding fans of Kyoto.
The process also involves applying metal leaf, an art passed down in Kyoto since long ago, and other traditional techniques involving gold decoration, resulting in an original item boasting textures that are difficult to achieve with printing.
Folding Fans in Japanese Culture
In Japan, folding fans are used during festivals and Shinto rituals, and were also part of etiquette in the societies of the arts, samurai, and aristocrats. Much like a warrior with his sword, they were always carried by the Japanese.
Furthermore, due to the spread-out shape symbolizing one's wish for future prosperity, they have long been sold as a gift with culture. Overall, folding fans are a Kyoto speciality that encompasses the culture and identity born of Japan's long history.
