The most pop and avant-garde fan in the world. Stirred with tradition and modern sensibilities , bananas and yellows make their debut.

. The collaboration of traditional culture with modern sensibilities is always exciting.

Miyawaki Uretsuan, a long-established Kyoto-style fan maker, has teamed up with GRAPH, a creative company that specializes in design, to launch the artistic and fashionable brand "BANANANAtoYELLOW.

As you know, a fan is a tool for keeping cool by blowing air, but in the Heian period (794-1185), it was a necessity for the aristocrats' formal wear, and it has a history of being used as an adornment to express dignity. They were also used as a communication tool for writing and presenting waka poems, and over time, they came to be treated as works of art.

Banana & Yelow" focuses on the roots of "something you want to have even if you don't have an ao," and develops original products centering on folding fans. The thesis of the brand is to pursue free creativity by considering a fan as a fashion item and an "accessory" for self-expression and so on.

Therefore, the lineup includes original T-shirts and bags with a dedicated fan pocket, as well as original perfumes arranged with the aroma of Miyawaki Uruguan's fans.

In addition, the program will feature guest artists from various genres of art, music, and fashion,Collaboration products are also produced.
