A fan that sparkles like a translucent night sky!

The scattered foil called "colored foil" depicts the Milky Way flowing across the summer night sky.

Notes	Be careful of moisture when using. For long-term off-season storage, secure the fan with paper and place it in the box. About the "tamejiwa" (dimples) of the fan: High-quality fans undergo a process called "tameru," in which heat is applied to the ends of the ribs to bend them inward so the fan closes more easily. As a result, wrinkles resembling "tamejiwa" (dimples) may appear on the inside of the ribs; this is a characteristic of fans made from natural materials and finished by hand, so please understand this in advance.
