Here is an interesting fact you probably did not know. The Chinese did not invent the folding version of the fan most commonly known. This type of fan, or Zhe Shan, was brought to China from Japan in the 11th century. Today, Chinese fans are made of many materials such as palm tree leaves, bamboo, and paper. Other materials include bone, feather, ivory, carved lacquer ware, paper, and silk. Additionally, you will find fans made of precious materials such as mother-of-pearl.
