History of Paper Hand Fans

The earliest paper fans can be traced back to ancient China, where paper was invented about 2000 years ago. A glimpse of their design are often depicted in Chinese mural paintings as oval or hexagonal paper fans that were of made paper, fixed on wooden handles or bamboo sticks, and adorned with calligraphy symbols or drawings.

With the development of paper-making and better qualities of paper, the paper fans and folding fans became easier to make. The Emperor Hi-Ti Ts'ai Lun of Lei-Yang, China helped to invent the paper that became most widely used in hand fans and the paper fans became more cost-effective than silk or cloth fans and often better-suited to the artwork, which the makers have always loved to cover the fans with.1

Flexible and convenient for use, the low costs and prices to make and sell the paper fans and their compact and handy design altogether made them popular worldwide. Through the years, the basic structure of the paper fan, however, changed very little that is why we see paper fans of different styles, materials, and designs and not only have they become a symbol of craftsmanship from centuries, they were also used across the world as family icons, status symbols, weapons, and even as dancing props.
