    This pretty, hand-held fan belonged to my mother (step, but she raised me), born in Cebu, PI.

    I have had it in my possession since she passed in 1993.

    It measures approx. 16" across when fanned out and approx. 7" along the frame/handle.

    It appears to be an ivory color plastic throughout with silk quality threads holding it together.

    The handles/frame has an intricate design and reads Hong Kong.

    Mom arrived in the U.S.A. in 1946 as a war bride. She and my father married in Manila in 1946 while he was stationed there during WWII.

    It is in good condition, considering its age.
