human history

Fuefue. Fly whisk. This fuefue consists of a long wooden handle, cylindrical in shape, and a whisk component of long, light-coloured horse hair. Cotton twine lashing wraps around the handle towards the whisk end which is light and natural in colour. The wood is medium brown in colour and has a smooth, matte surface treatment. The strands of horse hair are finely braided a short way then left flowing for the rest of the whisk.
