Also known as Boushu, the southern tip of Bouso peninsula in Chiba Prefecture is a hub of Uchiwa (Japanese traditional flat fan) production, with utilizing region’s native bamboos that have nice pliability for fan frames.
Boushu Uchiwa is a traditional beauty and it conveys an antique spirit of “Edo” (the origin of Tokyo). The fans are produced by the dexterous craftsmanship whose skill has been taken over from Edo period in the mid-1600s.
