I have an old fan that folds similar to the 18th century painted folding fan that was my mother-in-law's. It has a large bird in it. She may have gotten it when they lived in Japan when her husband was stationed there. It's very pretty.<br />Blessings, TinaMrs Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12896114843568971108noreply@blogger.com
