FYI, your link to the pictures is a nonstarter.

Sorry about linking all the imgbb pictures into this thread, not what I intended.

The picture that came through this time looks pretty much like a late 19th century brise fan that I believe probably is in the Chinese Canton or Southern style of carving. Here are some images of one I have that's a blade length of about nine inches from top to bottom.

Best regards,

Bill, thank you lovely fan from your collection and similar style.
Thanks again, clark

Well, one last try for the technically challenged, promise.

Also late 19th C. Canton style I believe. Here's its 1st cousin featuring carved mother of pearl instead of ivory.

Best regards,

Bill H.

Thank you Bill, and another nice piece you have. I think there were a lot of beautiful fans in use during the old days as China can be very hot and humid in the summer.
Best regards, clark
