SEIKI Kanazawa Gold Japanese Fan

Main Features

This Kanazawa gold leaf fan is handmade by Hakuichi with attention to the fan surface, bamboo ribs, and final assembly. The Seiki design is characterized by a bold and powerful placement of gold leaf.

“Seiki” means a clear, pure radiance, mainly referring to the light of the sun or moon. The page also explains it as a kind of aura worn by someone who has continued to make steady efforts. Hakuichi expresses the beautiful shine of the leaf as this “Seiki” radiance through various techniques.

Because each fan is handmade, the cracks and wrinkles in the leaf are never exactly the same. The design is also introduced as popular among international customers and men.

Design Appeal

The Hakubi series highlights the natural beauty and presence of Kanazawa leaf. Unlike the softer Shiracha fan, this Seiki fan feels stronger, bolder, and more striking. It is especially easy to recommend as a refined men’s gift or business gift.

It can be used not only with kimono and yukata, but also with suits and everyday clothing, making it a modern Japanese accessory for daily life.

Two-Way Design

The fan has different designs on the front and back, allowing it to be used as a two-way fan depending on the occasion, outfit, or mood.

Craftsmanship

The Kanazawa gold leaf fan uses traditional leaf materials such as leaf, torn leaf, noge, kirihaku, and sunago. These techniques, originally used for decorating Japanese paper, poetry anthologies, strips, and folding screens, are applied to the fan.

The fan is completed through specialized craftsmanship, with artisans separately handling the fan surface, bamboo ribs, leaf decoration, and final assembly.

The fan is handmade by artisans using natural materials such as Japanese paper and bamboo. The product page recommends avoiding high humidity, high heat, and direct sunlight, and storing the fan with its retaining paper to help prevent shape loss.
