A collection of fans with a Bilbao accent
Surely more than once you've seen a lady on public transport fanning herself in the heat wave. Maybe you've also received a pai-pai as a gift from the bride and groom at a summer wedding. Queen Letizia wore a fan in the official photos of her wedding and the most elegant guests always use it as an accessory. Now, in the middle of July and with the thermometers marking their highest quotas in the Northpeople are looking for ways to refresh themselves in this maelstrom of face masks. Always associated with our grandmothers' handbags or with high class events, fans are becoming more and more common.he fans are becoming widespread thanks to firms such as Kausiwhich are trying to recover the essence of a handicraft linked to our country.
An oriental legend tells that the origin of the fan is due to the princess Kau-Si, who during the torch festival took off her mask to fan herself with it. From this beautiful story was born the name of a brand that has not been long in becoming a candy for lovers of fashion and design. Far from focusing on merely functional fans, they have made their collaborations with big brands their point of differentiation. In their latest capsule collection, they have relied on the 'savoir faire' of the textile firm Gastón y Daniela, a very old Bilbao house of national and international prestige.
