A magnificent Thai village is painted entirely in gold a color which symbolizes spirituality and wealth in Asian culture. The background of this fan is a striking pure black creating an awesome decorative effect. Black is regarded as “heaven’s color” to the Chinese. Black is also associated with mystery sophistication and stealth. Gold on the other hand is closely associated with yellow which was the official color of the ancient Emperors of China. The color yellow is an earth color and like black neutral in its energy. Yellow is also symbolic of letting go of worldly cares. The Chinese often used this color to decorate their palaces and for their clothing. While color symbolism is usually associated with the Chinese this lovely scene was actually inspired by the north of Thailand. Thailand once called Siam is an amazingly diverse country with deep cultural roots. In the north of Thailand the climate is cooler than the south due to it being a mountainous region. Many small rural villages can be found in the north part of the country. As can be seen in the scene on this fan small huts temples boats and plenty of natural foliage often dot the countryside. This spectacular Thai wall fan is completely hand-painted by a skilled artist. Different brush strokes are used to create different objects in the fan. This amazing technique is simple yet takes years to master. A paint brush in the hands of a skilled artist has created the beautiful image you see before your eyes. Up in the north of Thailand the air is cleaner life moves more slowly and people are more genuine. The north has its own particular cuisine amazing festivals and a very distinct dialect that the rest of the country cannot understand. The capital of the north region is Chiang Mai. It is an amazing city that possesses a unique blend of the old and the new. In it can be seen ancient Buddhist temples from hundreds of years ago. Ancient roads walls and structures stand side-by-side with recently built malls restaurants and businesses. This gorgeous two-tone wall fan is a fantastic reminder of the beauty of northern Thailand – and also for any part of rural Asia. Black is a great hue for matching up with almost any decorative color scheme. Make this original handcrafted Thai wall fan the feature piece on your wall. You’ll marvel at its splendor and craftsmanship every chance you see it.

Purchased a 60 inch Gilded Morning fan, it is beautiful and delicate! The only issue was the paint smell when we opened it, but remedied that by letting it air out for a few days.

This fan is gorgeous. My fiance and I bought it to go with the oriental decor in our living room. It does so much more than that. It’s incredibly beautiful and adds a presence to the room like nothing else. The reflection on the waves, the village and scenery in the distance…it’s all captivating. Beautifully made and so, so special. I would absolutely recommend. Thank you so much for making such a special item.
