1 pair (1R+1L) short silk dance fans (flutter) made of real silk and bamboo.
Vibrant and graceful
These Chinese Dancing Fans are the way to highlight your graceful moves in Chinese folk dance. They can also go as worship praise fans, cultural dance fans, props for modern and folk dances.
Attention: They are NOT the plastic Taichi fans that make a loud noise when opened.
Materials
Hand painted vibrant colors. 2 layers of silk over bamboo.
Sturdy bamboo ribs. Carefully checked and splinter-free.
Dimension
Half circle shape. 4" (10 cm) silk over bamboo. 12" (30cm) bamboo ribs open to 23" (57cm) wide.
Edges not hemmed
The circular edges are not hemmed because the silk is only 4 inches long and hemming would interfere with movement. You can trim the edges once in a while if you like.
Plastic Gaskets
Some dancers prefer tight fans so they can stay fully open, others want them to open and close more dramatically. Plastic cushions are included to make the fan tighter.
Find them in a small plastic bag that comes with the fans. Cut them open. Tie the open cushion around the metal pin that goes through the bamboo.
This is optional. In most cases, the fan will be just fine without the gaskets. But it's recommended to keep them.
Carry bags included
Each pair of fans comes with a handy carry bag. We will select the bag in the color that best matches your fans. The bags do not have our logo on them.
Use and care
We strongly recommend steam ironing the silks when you receive them. When the wrinkles are gone, they will flow much better.
Avoid washing. Keep them off water (rain, beach). Let them dry before storing them in a bag.

The store only accepts on-line payment by paypal. If you do not have paypal account, it is easy to pay via paypal as a guest.
