度Size, wearing & display

The shape is easiest to compare by looking at the outer edge and the design near the handle. Distinguish a fan-shaped display piece from a usable folding fan; the outline alone does not establish that the object opens.

See the photographs for scale. If you need exact measurements before ordering, write to us.

五路 招财口诀— Wealth-Inviting Verse · Five Roads Wealth

A short verse traditionally written to invite good fortune and steady income.

The Wealth Gods of the Five Roads watch over income arriving from all five directions — east, south, west, north and centre.

Traditionally kept as a wish for prosperity.

The Five Paths motif expresses a prosperity wish. Here it identifies the theme of the design, not a promise about the owner’s finances.

The Five Paths theme is associated with welcoming prosperity from different directions. It is a fitting inscription for a shop opening or a household gift when the intention is abundance and a flourishing livelihood.

Hand-painted by the maker in the style of Taoist talisman art, with script and figures in traditional red, gold and ink.

In Taoist culture, motifs like these express a wish — here, prosperity. We share their traditional meaning as culture and intention, not as a guarantee of any outcome.
