意Meaning & symbolism
Tianguan, the Official of Heaven, is shown granting blessings — the classic wish for good fortune in the coming year.
The secret seal-name of Ziwei, the Purple Star Emperor who rules the stars from the pole; it is one of the most widely used protective seals in Taoist practice.
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, health and long life, peace and protection, success and authority.
Traditional symbolism and intention, shared as culture — not a promise of results.
材Details & craft
Hand-painted by the maker in the style of Taoist talisman art, with script and figures in traditional red, gold and ink.

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.
养Care
Keep paper and silk dry and out of strong sun. Roll or fold along the original lines and store flat in a dry place.
赠A gift for
Someone starting a new role, business or chapter at work. A new shop, a new home or a Lunar New Year visit. A traveller, a new home, or someone going through an uncertain time. Parents, grandparents and birthdays of elders. Anyone drawn to Taoist culture and its symbols.
