Pair of peacock feather fans

circa 1850 - 1875

RCIN 11409

Peacock feather fans were used by court attendants to fan the ruler and played an important role in the spectacle of the Indian court and during processions. The peacock feathers on the central portion of these fans have been masterfully applied with gemstones to accentuate the natural colours of the feather.
