The highlight of this small estate collection of vintage hand fans is the lovely imitation tortoise shell celluloid fan with open pierced work flowers. When fully opened, it measures 14" across the bottom by nearly 8 inches high and is in excellent condition with no damage.

The celluloid fan came in a floral paper covered box along with the still sealed, never used 6-1/2" high fan. I didn't want to unseal it but the fan appears to be paper with black wood or plastic end panels. The other two 8 by 13 inch fans are identical, in foiled paper boxes with real glass lid tops. They're made of reticulated balsa wood with a woven silk or rayon ribbon insert and red silk or rayon double tassels. Both fans are in excellent, likely unused condition though one of the glass box lids is cracked.
