Woman with fan

Edoardo Tofano

1881; unknown size; watercolor painting 🎨

In Western high society, the fan is not only an accessory, but also can be used to "eyebrow affection".

At first, the court ladies only held folding fans in their hands to hide their faces to hide their shyness. Later, whether the fan is opened, the position of the fan, and the speed of the fan have different meanings, such as:

"Put away the folding fan and tap on your chest with the fan, which means that I am thinking about you bitterly."

"Put the fan on the sideburns and look at the sky, meaning I'm missing you."

"Swing the fan slowly in front of the placket, meaning I don't have a crush yet, you can pursue me."
