Description:
Interesting Vintage Hand Fan made of 18 ribs in solid ivory. What I love the most about this fan is the amazing carved Initials on the 1st rib. I hope you can see it well enough in the pictures. The carving is just so fine, so thin, so flowing! The 1st and last ribs are very thick. The inner ribs are held together with a silk ribbon that is woven in and out of each rib through a silt in the rib. At the base of the ribs where they all come together they are fastened by a large rhinestone that is so nice it looks like a Georgian cut diamond! The condition of this fan is very good as far as the ivory ribs go. Most of the ribbon has detached from its connecting rib but again the Ivory is perfect. Just for the heck of it I weighed this fan on my digital postal scale and it weighs a little over 4 ounces! That’s a lot of ivory! It measures 8 ½" high and each rib measures 1 1/4" wide at the top and when the fan is open all the way it measures 15" across. Fresh from a fine Rockland, Maine Estate.
