Fan - History, East Asia

The Chinese Fan has abundant cultural deposits, is a part of China's national culture, and closely relates to Buddhism and culture of bamboo. In China, the Fans with elaborate paintings or prints were used throughout the country. The earliest known Chinese Fans are a pair of woven bamboo side-mounted from the second century BC. The Chinese character for "Fan" is etymologically derived from a photo of feathers under one roof. The Chinese fixed Fan, pien-mien, means "to stir the air."

The Fans were part of the social condition for the Chinese people. A particular situation and the gender attributed to a specific type of Fan for each individual. During the Song Dynasty, the famous artists were often commissioned to paint a picture on the surface of a Fan or Fan manual.

The folding Fan was invented in Japan around the sixth to the eighth century. He was a Fan called Akomeogi court after court, the women wear Akom name. According to Sui Song (History of Song), a Japanese monk Chone, offers folding Fans (twenty wooden paddles for the Fans hiogi and two ogi kawahori paper Fans to the Emperor of China in 988. Later in the eleventh century, the envoys from Korea and brought from Korea were folding Fans who are of Japanese origin as gifts to the Chinese courts. 

The popularity of the Fans was such that the sumptuary laws were enacted during the period Heian restricting the decoration of both hiogi and folding paper Fans. They were made by tying thin stripes of hinoki (or Japanese cypress) together with thread. 

The number of strips of wood was different for each person and their social standing. Later in the sixteenth century Portuguese traders introduced it to the west and soon men and women across the continent and was approved by the standards of that time. Used today by Shinto priests in formal attire and formal dress of the Japanese court (they can be seen used by the Emperor and Empress during coronation and marriage) and those Fans are painted in bright colors with tassels reaching.

The Fan or Fan of Chinese dance developed in the seventh century. Which according to China as the Fan or Fan of hand, was a row of feathers mounted on the end of a handle.

In China, the folding Fan came into fashion during the Ming Dynasty, between 1368 and 1644, and the city of Hangzhou was a center of production of folding fans. The Mai Ogi (or fan or Chinese dancing Fan) has ten sticks and a thick paper mount showing the family crest. Chinese painters have developed many designs of decorative Fan or Fans. 

The slats, of ivory, bone, mica, pearl, sandalwood or tortoiseshell, were carved and covered with paper or cloth. Folding Fans have "frames" which are the sticks and guards. The leaves are usually painted by craftsman. The social meaning is attached to the Fans in the Far East. The management of hand Fan or Fan became a highly regarded art as feminine. The role and use of handheld blower or Fan reached its high social importance, (the Fans, hand Fans were used even as a weapon - called the iron Fan, or tie shan in Chinese, Japanese tessen). Hand Fans or simply Fans are sometimes known as "haris" and are made of Japanese paper. In Japanese pop culture, Haris appear in anime and graphic novels as weapons.

Printed on a background paper leaves Fans were painted with great care. The document was originally made by hand and displayed the characteristic watermarks. The machine that made paper Fans, was introduced in the nineteenth century, Fans are softer, with a uniform texture.

folding Fans (扇子 Japanese "sensu", Chinese: "shànzi") remain important cultural symbols and popular tourist souvenirs in East Asia. The Geishas of all kinds (but most often the maiko) use folding Fans in their Fan dances as well.

The Japanese Fans are Fans of paper on a bamboo frame, usually with a design painted on them. In addition to folding Fans (OGI), flex-no Fans (uchiwa) are very popular and common. The Fan or hand Fan is mainly used to perk himself in hot weather.

The Fan or range of hand symbolizes the friendship, respect and good wishes. Sometimes given as special gifts and are also an important step, a mainstay in Japanese dance.

It was also used in the army as a way to send signals on the battlefield, but the Fans, hand Fans were used mainly for cutting social activities.

In Japan, Fans or Fans of hand Fans were used differently by warriors as a form of weapon, actors and dancers for shows, and children as a toy.

Some Japanese believe that the handle of the Fan symbolizes the beginning of life and ribs represent this belief by the ways of life that can go in many directions.

The archaeological ruins show that the Fans and hand Fans were used in ancient Greece. In Europe during the Middle Ages, the Fan or Fan of hand is absent. The first hand Fans or Fans of Christian Europe was the flabellum (also known as hand Fan hand Fan or ceremonial), dating from the sixth century. These services were used to drive insects away from the consecrated bread and wine. Its use became extinct in Western Europe during the Middle Ages, but continues in the Eastern Orthodox Church and the Churches of Ethiopia. 

Fans and hand Fans were reintroduced to Europe in the thirteenth century and fourteenth century. The hand Fans or Fans of the Middle East were brought by the Crusaders. In the fifteenth century, Portuguese traders brought Fans or Fans out to Europe from China and Japan. Fans and hand Fans were so popular.

In the seventeenth century folding Fan, introduced from China, became popular in Europe. These Fans, hand Fans are particularly well represented in portraits of newborn babies in women of high society of the time. 

Queen Elizabeth I, you can see it has two Fans decorated with pompoms in their palace guards and more rigid style Fan, hand Fan or Fans are usually decorated with feathers and jewels. These hand Fans or rigid style Fans often hung on the skirts of the ladies. Of hand Fans this time is only more exotic glue that has survived. XV century Fans are in museums today have either leather, with designs cut leaves form a design similar to lace or a more rigid leaf with inlays of exotic materials like mica. 

One of the characteristics of these Fans, hand Fans is rather crude bone or ivory sticks and the shape of the skin often leaves placed on top of the sticks rather than glued as later used in the Fans Folding hand. Hand Fans made of sticks decorated without blade Fans were known as a bris. However, despite the crude methods of construction of hand Fans or Fans of the time whether to highlight the efforts in developing its high degree of luxury as ornamental additions together with gloves, hats and other items typical of elaborate pump used at the time.

In the seventeenth century the Fan or Fan of hard labor was seen in portraits of the previous century had fallen out of favor as folding Fans gained dominance in Europe. Fans and hand Fans began to show well-painted leaves, often with a religious theme, classical or neoclassical. The reverse of these hand Fans or Fans also began to show early designs made from flowers. Ivory chopsticks are often simple or tortoiseshell, sometimes inlaid with gold or silver with great ornamental ironwork and the time. The way the sticks sit close to each other, often with little or no space between them is one of the hallmarks of the hand Fans of this period.

In 1685 the Edict of Nantes was revoked in France. This caused the mass immigration from France to neighboring Protestant countries (like England), many Fans of hand crafts. This dispersion in skill is reflected in the growing quality of many Fans or Fans of the hand of non-French countries after this date.

In the eighteenth century, Fans of ornamental hand and even reached a high degree of art and are being conducted throughout Europe often by specialized craftsmen, either in leaves or twigs. Fans folded silk or parchment were decorated and painted by artists of the time. Fans were also imported from China by the East India, large manufacturing and trading companies at this time. About half a decade of 1700, the inventors started designing mechanical Fans or Fans. Wind Fans perched up on the roof (similar to wind-up clocks) were popular in the late 1700's. In the 19th century in the West, European fashion caused the decor and size of the range Fan for a change.

It is said that in the courts of England and elsewhere in Spain have used one or not less Fans, and tacit secret code hidden messages. However, modern research has shown that it was a marketing ploy developed in the eighteenth century, one that has maintained its appeal considerably over the centuries. This is now used for marketing by the heads of the Fans or Fans, as Duvelleroy in London, who produced a series of ads in the 1960 showing "the language of the Fan" with models displaying antique Fans with this " visual language."
