FAQs

Mourning fans were specialised personal accessories used primarily during the Victorian and Edwardian eras as part of strict mourning etiquette. Craftspeople produced them in dark shades, particularly black, using materials such as silk, lace, and ebonised wood to adhere to societal rules following a bereavement.

Edwardian folding fans commonly featured leaves made of silk, satin, lace, or paper mounted onto sticks of ebonised wood, bone, tortoiseshell, or mother-of-pearl. Decorative details were frequently hand-painted using gouache or watercolour pigments.

Authentic antique fans display fine hand-stitching along lace or fabric borders and subtle variations in hand-painted motifs. Look for organic wear around fold lines, delicate metal rivets at the pivot point, and historical construction techniques rather than synthetic adhesives.

Mounting a framed antique fan on a narrow wall space or within a gallery wall creates a focal point. Pair it with dark wooden furniture or minimalist contemporary frames to highlight the delicate textile craftsmanship.

Keep antique fans framed behind UV-protective glass to prevent fading and deterioration from light exposure. Maintain a stable indoor climate free from excess humidity or direct heat to prevent fragile fabrics and sticks from warping or perishing.
