This fan was up for auction on ebay and sold today for $860.00 - worth every penny. The detail on the lace is spectacular and the mother of pearl boning is just magnificent. If I would have won the auction (no, I didn't even bid) I would have an equally magnificent custom frame constructed for it and hang it in a place where I could enjoy it every single day. Items like these are so hard to find and deserve to be cherished if not the superior workmanship but for their history. I was so thrilled to have come upon this auction merely for the sheer enjoyment of seeing something so beautiful and am happy to know that anyone who would spend $860 for it would honor it's value.
