      There will surely be someone out there who can give you some information about your 'instant collection'.
      I'd say you've been really lucky to have been gifted them.

      I have just uploaded an almost identical fan to your #DSCF8538 except mine has a natural wood handle. I will follow your post as well as notify you if I get any info.
