  • Details: This is a wood fan, it is hand painted with gorgeous pink and peach roses and blue Forget-Me-Nots plus lots of swirls and gold painted accents. It has an "open-work" cut out design across the leaf border with a black ribbon running through it and more cut-out work on the sides. Fans have been around since Roman times but these hand held - folding fans were introduced in the West during the 17th Century, and quickly became popular.  These were not only great for keeping cool, they also kept bugs and unworthy suitors away.  They became a fashion accessory, much like a brooch or bracelet, these were decorative pieces of art to be worn and shown.  Today we love them as home decor; whether framed and hung on the wall, opened on a base/stand on a tabletop, used as a backdrop for figurines or other knick-knacks, or several displayed on a wall; fans can create an atmosphere of sophistication, romance, Bohemian, Victorian, fun, quirky or tropical, just depends on the fans and how you want to use them.  These make great gifts for Valentines Day, Mother's day and birthdays.
