Hand Fan Display Stands Features and FAQ


Chinese hand fan display stands are traditionally made of carved wood or bamboo, or a combination of both. They sport simple to modern designs, with the simplest of their kind features only a pair of rectangular dowels with a dent for resting a half-moon-shaped folding fan, their most popular designs feature a bridge-like structure or appear like a miniature bookshelf with a flat wood-carved tiny piece of board as the hand fan's rest, and modern designs that can stand on their own as an Asian figurine and can hold a half- or fully-opened folding fan.

Often, a small hand fan display stand's wooden parts are securely glued to each other, or inserted to specially-made hollows, but they can efficiently hold for display hand fans that measure up to 13" long.

Hand fan display stands for Chinese palace fans or paddle fans are easily recognized for the tiny wood that attached to a pair of dowel in a manner parallel to their base. To use, simply insert the handle of the paddle fan or the Chinese palace fan to the hole in the middle of the horizontal wooden structure so that the end of the hand fan's long handle sits on the top of the base and held in place.

Traditional hand fan display stands for folding fans. They feature a pair of dowel that connects a small, concave or arc-shaped wood frame, which serves as the stand of the folding fan itself, and is juxtaposed by a small, hollow, cylindrical woodwork. To use, ensure that the tiny arc-shaped wooden panel is secured between the dowels and then open the folding fan and insert it through one of the spaces below its rivets to the middle of the arc-shaped wood. You can also follow these procedures for hand fan display stands, which mimic a tiny bookstand, or which feature a tiny and flat wooden frame with Chinese-style carving.
