Item:204651764447Antique Mother of Pearl Hand Fan with Portraits 19th Century eventail nacre. Magnificent Antique Mother of Pearl Bridal Hand Fan with Portraits 19th Century Marvel at this exquisite rarity—a precious wedding hand fan that once graced the elegant palms of a fair bride, a luxurious keepsake cradled on her sacred day, radiating the utmost wishes for the blissful union of the bride and groom. Upon the ivory-hued silk canvas, adorned with intricate point de gaze lace appliqué, the delicate portraits of the betrothed couple grace two vellum medallions. Atop these miniature masterpieces, ribbon bows, made of scintillating gold, silver, and brass sequins, bestow an aura of opulence. United in a tender gaze, the bride and groom are immortalised, their eternal love sealed by a pair of crossing golden arrows. The fan's monture , a testament to craftsmanship, boasts the finest white mother of pearl sourced from the Pinctada margaritifera species. A surface of unparalleled smoothness is embellished with a quaint carved motif, artfully covered in gold, silver, and brass foil, echoing the affluence of the owner's lineage. While the supple silk bears the marks of time's unrelenting passage, the undying gaze of the enamored couple transcends temporal bounds. Thus, despite the scars etched by time, this exceptional hand fan metamorphoses into a priceless relic—a singular time capsule encapsulating an era of enduring love and historical splendour.
