Following the folk art series app "mortise and tenon", tag Design released the second folk art series app "Folding Fan". "Folding fans in Wuzhong today are all made of red sandalwood, ivory, and ebony, but those made of palm bamboo and moso bamboo are called elegant objects with sleeves. The surface is heavy and not expensive." - Shen Defu ( 1578-1642) The popularity of folding fans in China began around the 15th century during the Ming Dynasty. This daily utensil was originally used to enjoy the cool air, but it gradually became popular because literati created calligraphy and paintings on the fan surface for personal use or as a gift. When the elegant scholars who originally created only on paper found that this foldable and stretchable thing was almost a moving scroll, they displayed all their favorite poems, calligraphy and paintings on it, combined with natural and elegant materials and famous craftsmen. Their ingenious craftsmanship not only expresses leisure and ease, but also shows individuality! On a scorching summer day, a fan is in hand, swaying slowly. Ancient literati made the most of this small daily use to enjoy the cool air. Almost all well-known painters and calligraphers have written and painted on folding fans, many of which have been handed down from generation to generation. The beauty of warm and elegant materials, elegant and exquisite calligraphy and painting, people are proud to have both famous fans and the hands of fan masters. It is like a mobile art business card, a symbol of taste and status. As time goes by, the folding fan in the hand will gradually show its own unique color and texture, so it has become a "must-have fashion item" for literati and players of that era. In the 18th century, folding fans were popular in Europe, and were once regarded as a symbol of exotic oriental sentiment. Today, as a group of modern humans, we are moved and attracted by the dedication of traditional craftsmen to carve beautiful objects, and the state of ancient literati players who "play with objects to cultivate their sentiments" but give birth to a "world".
