Here we have the most amazing antique fan-shaped shadow box. There is also a second one listed and offered for sale, with a fan that is in better condition than this one.
The case is embellished with scrollwork and a shell motif on the center top and bottom. It is lined with green velvet inside. The fan itself has heavily carved sticks, with cross pattèe decoration. The ribs are covered with a disintegrating gossamer leaf, that was hand sewn with hundreds of sparkling metal leaf and flower sequins. I honestly don't know if the fabric on this one has any parts that are intact, although the carved ribs are in good condition.
Notes: Please view the numerous, detailed photos for an accurate appraisal of this item's condition. As you can see, this fan is a mess. The fabric leaf of fan has disintegrated. The gold case that the frame was mounted in is showing its age, although we find the wear to be most charming and suitable. The gold had darkened, is the decorating is uneven, chipped and shows cracks and fine lines in the wood. The corners show separation where they meet.
Fair
The gilt shadow box measures 22.5 across by 14 in height at the tallest point. It is 1.5 in depth. The inner glass is 20.75 by 11.5 The fan itself is about 17.5 by 9.5. "
