This fabulous Asian wall fan features a pair of magpies perched among a branch with colorful blue and purple flowers. The magpie bird is a symbol of joy in Chinese culture and frequently seen during times of celebration and on happy occasions. Hand-painted in the Chinese style, this striking Chinese fan will brighten and enhance any decorative setting.
Although Oriental style fans were first seen in Egypt thousands of years ago, they were perfected in China. The Chinese took the art of fan making to a new level with their beautifully crafted Chinese fans. Many of the first fans were made from silk, paper and wood. These Chinese fans contained images from nature and calligraphy, along with the artist's seal. Sometimes the emperor or wealthy noblemen commissioned artists to create the perfect decorative fan, customized to their liking. Today, the tradition of fans from China continues with highly skilled artists from around the country still producing masterpieces that stand the test of time.
