These two prints show the occupations of the 扇師 (ougi-shi, fan-maker) on the left and the 桶師 (oke-shi, barrel-maker) on the right.

The work of ougi-shi involves placing images on fan-shaped papers, folding them, and inserting senkotu (扇骨, wooden ribs made by other craftsmen) between two layers of fan-shaped paper. In old days, some parts of this work required physical power and were done only by men, but thanks to the modern technology, women can now also participate in this craft. In this image, the person appears to be folding the paper using a special tool designed for this process.

Oke was an essential item in Japanese daily life until new materials, such as tin and then plastic, were introduced. In old days, the body of the oke was made from cedar or cypress wood, and bamboo was used for the binding hoops. In the image, the man is pushing the hoop down using special tools. In the foreground, long green bamboo strips and Oke in the process of being made are visible.
