  • Pattern: Abstract Design Open Work
  • Vintage: 1980's
  • Details:  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 also 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.  This fan was made in Madrid, it's hand painted wood with a gorgeous "open-work" cut out design and cloth leaf with a painted gold border.  The colors are vibrant purple, magenta and plum.  We believe this is a hand made fan by Folgado Romeu.  Retains its original store sticker.  These make great gifts for Valentines Day, Mother's day and birthdays.
