度Size, wearing & display
The Wenchang theme expresses a wish for learning. It gives the design a specific meaning as a study gift without promising an exam result.
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
Students and anyone facing an exam or a new field of study. A new shop, a new home or a Lunar New Year visit. A traveller, a new home, or someone going through an uncertain time. Anyone drawn to Taoist culture and its symbols.
The meaning of this piece · 寓意
Thirty-Six Marshals Black Hand-Painted Taoist Ritual Fan
In the old temples of Longhu and Wudang, thunder was the voice of heaven’s law. Priests carved its seals into wood the lightning had already touched and kept them by the door, the bed and the body — so that whatever is crooked would meet something straight.
