This is a black lacquered iron fan. Includes original box and bag. Like new, unused. I purchased this several years ago for display purposes and have kept it stored in its box since then. However, as I have no use for it, I've decided to sell it. The exterior is iron, and the ribs inside are made of bamboo. It has a sturdy construction with a black lacquer finish. It can be used as a fan, and also as a self-defense weapon in a pinch by striking or thrusting (it will hurt quite a bit). #FoldingFan #IronFan #Arms #Weapon
