🪭 History

Kyo-sensu is Kyoto’s folding-fan tradition, closely connected with Japanese court culture and performing arts. A surviving cypress fan found inside a Buddhist statue at Tō-ji in Kyoto bears an inscription dated 877. Cypress fans served as accessories of court dress and ceremony, while paper fans with bamboo ribs were also in use during the Heian period. During the Muromachi period, a construction developed in China—with ribs enclosed between front and back layers of paper—became widespread in Japan. From this period onward, tea ceremony, incense ceremony and dance encouraged the development of fans for particular uses. Kyoto fan-making remained closely associated with these arts, including Noh and Kyōgen. Kyo-sensu received national traditional-craft designation in October 1977.

The product is identified as a Kyo-sensu and is finished in Kyoto using fan paper from Kyoto and Japanese-made ribs. Its plain white design is intended for men’s formal wear.
