Sensu Damen

Sensu for ladies (fan) with the one hundred verses of Master Rikyu.

In the tea ceremony, the handheld fan sensu is not used to cool oneself, rather, the fan - which is always kept closed - is used to express respect for people, flowers (which represent nature), calligraphy (which represents the spiritual world) or a tea room (the setting for a unique gathering). The gin sensu has mainly a very strong symbolic character.
