Washi Fan Sconce by Cedar & Moss
Description
The authentic Japanese uchiwa fans featured in our Washi Fan Sconce are crafted by a renowned Kyoto fan atelier with over 300 years of tradition. Representing the pinnacle of Kyoto craftsmanship, each fan is entirely handmade—from shaping the aged Tanba bamboo ribs to precisely cutting and applying the washi paper. The sun-bleached washi paper is produced by master artisans, while the sculpted smooth handle is crafted from locally sourced Tsuga hemlock. The exquisite Japanese fan is mounted with brass pegs and softly backlit by a slim LED bulb, casting a gentle glow through the washi and creating an atmospheric wash of light on the wall. The rectangular backplate is made from American maple and assembled by hand in our Pacific Northwest studio and meets ADA requirements.
Namesake: The word uchiwa is linked to an old Japanese saying believed to mean “repel the evil.” Its pronunciation resembled uchiwa, which is why these fans have long been regarded as protective charms and symbols of good luck.
