Fan 1885 - 1899

This delicate hand fan, created by Tiffany & Co. between 1885 and 1899, showcases the craftsmanship of the renowned jeweler. The fan features a white silk base adorned with a glittering gold-tone design of delicate floral motifs and sequins. A painted scene of a couple strolling through a park, likely inspired by the romanticism of the era, occupies the central panel. The fan's delicate white feather trim adds to its elegance and complements the soft, muted tones of the design. This exquisite piece, now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, embodies the artistry and opulence of the late 19th century.
