Description: Kumamoto Castle Uchiwa Fan thanks for visiting our page Description Condition: Brand New Product Dimensions(Approx.): 25 x 37 (cm) Material: Washi and bamboo pattern: Kumamoto Castle Kumamoto Castle was built by Kato Kiyomasa in 1607, centered around Chausuyama.In 1632, Hosokawa Tadatoshi entered the castle as lord of the Kumamoto domain.After the feudal domains were abolished and prefectures were established, the Chinzei Chindai was established at Kumamoto Castle, and in 1877 it became a battlefield during the Seinan War,and a fire destroyed the castle tower and Honmaru Palace area just before the outbreak of hostilities.After World War II, there was growing interest among citizens and others to rebuild the castle tower, and in 1960,the exterior of the large and small castle towers was restored using steel-reinforced concrete.Kumamoto Castle has been the stage for many historical events, has attracted many people since its construction, and is a spiritual anchor for the people of Kumamoto. The origins of Kutami fans date back to 1600, when a traveling monk from Marugame, Shikoku, taught the method of fan making as a payment for lodging. By applying persimmon tannin to the fan, the washi paper is made stronger, lasts longer, and acts as an insect repellent. Kutami tannin fans, which are only made in Kutami, Kumamoto, are said to bring prosperity to business, as they mean "the people are coming," and they have been used as gifts as lucky charms.
