Vouwwaaier met felroze struisveren op een montuur van onversierd van kunststof met schildpadmotief c. 1900 - 1925

This vibrant fan, crafted by Duvelleroy around the turn of the 20th century, features a striking display of bright pink ostrich feathers. The fan's delicate frame, crafted from plastic with a tortoise-shell pattern, provides a subtle contrast to the bold plumage. The fan's large size (88 cm span, 69 cm length) suggests its use as a fashionable accessory during a period when feathers were highly prized in high society. The fan's delicate construction and the use of ostrich feathers allude to the Art Nouveau movement, a style which celebrated organic forms and natural materials.
