Description
Brisé folding fan fashioned from amber-toned horn sticks, each decorated with carved floral motifs and additional ornamental details. The fan features a series of slender inner sticks framed by two sturdier outer guards, which provide protection for the delicate blades. The inner sticks are embellished with gouache-painted floral motifs depicting pink roses, carnations and smaller blossoms, accompanied by yellow flowers and surrounded by leafy foliage. The painted decoration extends across the individual sticks, forming a continuous floral composition when the fan is opened. The sticks are held together by a thin blue ribbon threaded through their upper sections and secured at the base by a small metal rivet.
