栗川商店 柿漆團扇

「來民團扇」始於1600年的江戶時代。丸龜的僧侶為答謝肥後藩主，將團扇的製法傳授與其。以和紙，竹和柿漆製作而成。柿漆是利用未熟的「豆柿」製作而成的一種染料，塗在和紙上會令紙質變硬，外層有光澤，而且能防止昆蟲蛀食紙張。
使用時間越長，團扇會變得越深色，展現出獨特的紋理。

Kutami Uchiwa is a fan in made Kumamoto prefecture. It has started more than 400 years ago, and now it is one of the largest production areas in Japan.
Shibu Uchiwa's unique glaze is made by many by persimmon tannin. Persimmon tannin is not only useful for the texture but also makes the fan long-lasting and works as a insect proof.
You can enjoy the change of the colors as you use over the years.
It comes in a original package made of Japanese paper
