Chinese fans are very prevalent throughout the Orient. Fans from China first made their appearance in the West in Europe during the 16th century. The queens and kings of Europe usually possessed Chinese wall fans as exhibits of their wealth.

These Chinese fans were appreciated for their fine craftsmanship and beautifully painted scenes.
