Handmade Folding Gold On Black Decorative Wall Fan With Stand - Confucius & Chinese Script Design

Celebrate the spirit of knowledge and culture with this sumptuous decorative folding fan handcrafted by skilled Asian artisans. This exquisite creation features an intricate portrait of Confucius, the famed Chinese scholar, rendered in shimmering gold paint on high-grade black paper. The front of this opulent piece is ornamented with quotations from the sage's personal memoirs, which are depicted in delicate "jia gu wen" (turtle shell script), one of China's earliest written languages. One phrase reads: "To study and not to think is a waste." The fan's upper border is resplendent with scenes of every-day life in ancient China's thriving marketplaces. On the fan's reverse side are additional phrases from the Confucian Analects, depicted with elegant simplicity. Confucius, who lived between 551 and 479 B.C., is world-renowned for his wisdom and influential social philosophies. Made from bamboo, the fan comes complete with an ornately-embroidered silky carrying case and a convenient wooden display stand. When you open the fan fully, the wood slats at the bottom of the opened fan fit snuggly over the top edge of the bridge on the stand. This wonderful fan will add a noble flair to your windowsill, dining table or office desk, and can also be hung on any vertical surface for an old-world aesthetic. When open, this fan measures 24 inches wide x 13 inches high.
