This exquisite Edwardian hand fan is a beautiful example of early 20th-century elegance. Popular between 1901 and 1910, fans like this one were essential accessories for fashionable women. Crafted from delicate materials such as silk and lace, and often adorned with sequins or embroidery, they added a touch of refinement to social gatherings and evening events.
Beyond their decorative charm, fans also served as subtle tools of communication and expressions of grace. This antique piece captures the sophistication and artistry of its era—perfect for collectors, period costume designers, or those who love historic fashion.
The fan is in very “delicate” condition. All of the sticks are in very good condition… none broken. The silk and other parts of the ribs are torn in a few places and weak in others, but many are also in very good condition. The condition is taken into account when pricing.
