A fusion of two artistic worlds—the dynamic power of Japan’s iconic “Namiura” wave and the fine marquetry traditions of Spain’s VALEDO atelier—this folding fan is a remarkable cross-cultural creation. Crafted with inlaid woodwork techniques from Firenze and Spain, it features Japan’s legendary Hokusai wave rendered in wooden segments, each carefully embedded like puzzle pieces.

✨ Character Summary
Dynamic, cross-cultural, and tactile—this fan captures the rhythm of waves and the artistry of hands across continents.
※ Additional Explanation
This folding fan carries within it a rare conversation—between oceans and workshops, between Japanese printmakers and Spanish wood artisans. Each curve of the Great Wave is assembled from individual wooden pieces, each piece cut, shaded, and aligned with stunning accuracy. While Hokusai’s original print evoked the fury of nature, this reinterpretation channels its power through wood, texture, and form. The leather case completes the story: soft to the touch, robust in travel, and fitting for a piece that blends heritage and innovation. This fan is not only a decorative item but a cultural dialogue made tangible, preserved within bamboo and grain.
