Fan Day Fair 2023 to be held
May 1st is "Love Day, Fan and Uchiwa Day"
During the Heian period, the "Kyusen no Gi" ceremony was held at the Imperial Palace on May 1st (April 1st on the lunar calendar).
In preparation for the arrival of summer, the emperor bestowed upon the lady-in-waiting a summer fan placed in a willow box.
Also, since the Tale of Genji depicts a scene in which a man and a woman in love give each other fans as gifts, the Kyoto Fan and Uchiwa Commercial Cooperative Association designated May 1st as "Love (51) Day" in 1990.
To commemorate this, Banana to Yellow will be offering a 10% discount on all folding fans.
It's a great gift to give to your partner as you prepare for summer. It also makes a great Mother's Day gift.
Event period: Friday, April 28th, 2023 - Sunday, May 7th, 2023
