Victorian Things I Love... Fans




I have in my collection this pretty pink Ostrich feather fan, as well as a black and teal blue coloured fan. 

The Victorian millinery trade and the appetite for fans such as this promoted the start of the National Audubon Society in the 1920's since many species of birds were close to extinction.
