Whisper. I hide the fan - you can still hear it
The shape of the fan is always fraught with symbolic meaning.
In the form of a fan leaf, the motif of an unblown lotus is read: as a symbol of the divine and immortal beginning in man, a synonym for perfection.
In Mayan culture, the lotus embodied the idea of rebirth.
Folding fan cockade has a second name - "peacock tail". It is a symbol of the all-seeing sun and eternal cosmic cycles.
Folding fans at the symbolic level perform the function of good wishes. In Japan, where they were invented, their design symbolizes a person's desire to reveal their gifts and talents in the same way that a fan presented to him is revealed.
