It is extremly colorful, and there is a gold pattern around the edges. The other side is white with gold stars surrounding a smaller, round scene of three figures; these figures are also in front of a nature scene. The handle has an ornate design carved from the ivory.
Condition Description: On the white side of the fan, one of the ivory ribs is badly damaged. Opposite that rib is another that is taped. There is also wear on the paint.
