hconcept Japanese Hand fan shaped like a leaf, "Ha" Uchiwa

The design is inspired by the idea that in the past people would use large leaves like this to fan themselves and cool off. This playful design is both beautiful and functional. When holding the fan into the sun, the rays of sunlight will beautifully shine through. The uchiwa is beautifully crafted using Japanese paper. 

Designer comment: O-lab Toshihiro Aya

It designed this in the heat of the Japanese summer. Not only did it help to physically lower my body temperature, but I thought that if I had some fun, I might be able to forget about the heat, which was the reason I started thinking about leaf uchiwa. With humor and fun, I aimed for a design that allows you to practice an ecological life naturally.
