This distinctive vintage traditional hand fan / pankha is beautifully decorated with colourful floral appliqué work created from individually cut and stitched fabric pieces.
The central textile panel features large stylised flowers in shades of red, yellow and green against a light-coloured background, surrounded by a striking red-and-white geometric border. The outer edge is finished with gathered fabric frills in yellow, red, white and deep blue, giving the piece a highly decorative and festive appearance.
Its unusual shaped construction and handmade detailing give the fan a strong folk-art character. The visible hand stitching, aged textiles and slight variations in the appliqué work further highlight its handcrafted origins.

Brass is actually an alloy, not a pure metal. It’s a combination of copper and zinc, and the proportions of these metals determine the colour and properties of the brass. Known for its durability and resistance to corrosion, brass has been used for centuries in everything from musical instruments to household items. Using brass utensils can impart a subtle metallic taste to food, enhancing its flavour profile.
