Fan Definition
Fans have been in use since the time of Egyptian pharaohs to keep off insects and to make air cooler. By 18th century they became a fashion accessory. The fans were made in paper, silk, satin and even feathers. Ivory and wood were used to make the stick of the fans. Fans with intricate details and machine made printed fans are popular among collectors.
