EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning fan adorned with peacock feathers, dating back to the late 19th century. The intricate craftsmanship and vibrant colors of this English-made decorative circular fan are truly mesmerizing. With its cane handle and exquisite feather arrangement, it is a testament to the artistry and attention to detail prevalent during that era. The mix of royal blue, navy blue, lime green, and mint green feathers creates a harmonious blend of hues that adds an air of elegance to any space. The spherical shape of the fan further enhances its visual appeal, making it a unique ornament for display. Peacock feathers have long been associated with beauty and grace in many cultures around the world. This particular piece reflects non-English cultural traditions, possibly influenced by Burmese craftsmanship. Its presence evokes images of grandeur and sophistication from a bygone era. Displayed at The Geffrye Museum of the Home in London, this fan serves as both an object d'art and a glimpse into history. It offers insight into Victorian lifestyle and culture while showcasing nature's own remarkable creations.
