Note: The fan motif has been with us since antiquity. Not only because of its natural occurrence (bird tails such as peacocks, palm leaves, lotus flowers and sunshine rays) but because of our manmade fans themselves. The Egyptians were great users of fans, in ceremonies and for personal practical uses alike. Their use in decorative motifs can clearly be seen (and have been given rebirths throughly decorative history ever since) and ceremonial fans themselves were found in Tutankhamen‘s tomb. In fact it’s hard to find a culture that doesn’t have a history of fans from their earliest routes. Ancient Greece and Rome, Pagan ritual, early Christian flabellum used to ward away flies from sacred offerings, Chinese mythology mentions them and indeed they would go on to invent the folding fan that then populated the West so widely throughout the seventeenth century onwards. The fan has been part of the human psyche for as long as we can trace and this contemporary manifestation is the distillation of 3,000 years of human history.
