About the Item

Chinese fan with wooden box. Composed of twenty-two vertical wooden rods, finely crafted in a dark tone and decorated in gold with butterflies, flowers and geometric motifs. Small circles and symbols decorate the top of the stems. The frame of the fan supports a screen of light fabric, possibly silk or fine paper, decorated with paintings of landscapes and natural motifs. The rods are interconnected by a small pin, allowing them to open smoothly and fluidly. At the end of the fan, a golden fringe of braided threads is attached to a delicate cord, serving as an additional decorative detail. The protective box, with a metal clasp, helps to preserve the piece and is decorated with floral motifs, reinforcing its importance as a collector's item. This fan is a sophisticated example of decorative art. Wear and defects.
