Traditional dances - 3v

The stamp depicts a traditional dance from Okinawa.

The dancer wields a katana (sword) in left hand and a Gunbai Uchiwa at right.

Gunbai Uchiwa, a fixed fan, was used by generals and daimyo (feudal lords); and hence became a symbol of power. Oldest gunbai are rather simple, while during the Edo period they were often decorated in golden lacquer and became true jewels. (research in page of giuseppepiva)
