A bamboo fan stand is included, making it a perfect display set. The first fan, dating to the 20th century, features a gold background adorned with a flower cart and cascading cherry blossoms and wisteria. The reverse side displays a silver background with a fully bloomed cherry tree in vivid detail. The second fan, from the early 20th century, presents the same design on both sides, depicting a serene scene with a pond and a cherry tree in full bloom. Cherry blossoms (sakura) hold deep cultural significance in Japan, symbolizing the fleeting nature of life and the beauty of renewal. They are also associated with hope, vitality, and the arrival of spring. The fans show slight signs of age, including abrasions, minor discoloration, and a slight bend in the frame of one fan. Please refer to the photos for detailed condition. A timeless and elegant pair, this set embodies the beauty of traditional Japanese artistry, perfect for collectors or as a decorative piece.
