    Description

    Antique Chinese Canton silk fan:  one side embroidered, the other hand painted.  Motifs are birds, butterflies, and floral.  Comes in a beautiful wooden box with figures painted in gold.  The fan measures 10 inches long; the box is 12 inches long.
    CONDITION:  VERY GOOD.  The only thing to really mention is that there is an old repair on the blue embroidered side, about 3/4 inches long.  The repair shows only faintly on the hand painted side.  (Please see last 2 photos).  The fan has been folded for a very long time and is a bit stiff when opening.  The sticks are in nice condition.
    The box is in nice condition, with lovely hand painting both inside and out.  The hinges are good, and the clasp works fine.
    PLEASE SEE ALL PHOTOS AND EMAIL ANY QUESTIONS BEFORE BIDDING.  THANK YOU.
