Pair of peacock feather fans

RCIN 11409

Peacock feather fans were used by court attendants to fan the ruler. They also played an important role in the spectacle of Indian court and were used 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.
