β Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: Is this fan hand-painted or printed?
A: The artwork is professionally printed on high-quality paper, then hand-mounted onto the fan by skilled artisans. While not hand-painted, it retains a traditional look with beautiful detail and texture.
Q2: How do I hang the fan on my wall?
A: Each fan includes a pre-attached hanging string on the back. Simply unfold the fan and hang it on a sturdy wall hook, nail, or adhesive wall hanger. The largest size (2.2 meters) comes with two hanging points for better weight distribution.
Q3: Is the fan foldable or fixed?
A: Yes, the fan is foldable like a traditional Chinese folding fan. However, it is designed for wall display, not for frequent folding and unfolding. To preserve its shape and mounting, we recommend keeping it open once installed.
Q4: Are there imperfections on the fan?
A: These fans are handcrafted using natural bamboo and manually mounted paper. Minor bubbles, wrinkles, ink smudges, or natural bamboo textures (like burrs or spots) are normal and part of the charm of handmade folk art.
Q5: Can I use this fan outdoors or in humid areas?
A: We recommend indoor use only. Since it is made of paper and bamboo, direct sunlight, moisture, or outdoor exposure may cause fading or warping over time.

A: You will receive:
-
1 Γ Handmade folding fan (in the size and color of your choice)
