A Fine Early 18th Century Ivory Fan, dated 1740's, the monture relatively plain save for gentle shaping to the edges of the gorge sticks and a rope effect to the guards with colour applied to emphasises the low relief. The double paper leaf is printed and hand coloured with great detail, some of which being highlighted with applied ground mother-of-pearl. Central to the recto, a female Chinese figure in decorated robe, holding a large fixed shaped hand screen, and accompanied by a younger female seated at a nearby table. To the left, a shaped cartouche containing two more Chinese ladies, their costume with gold highlights, the decoration around this section being that of minute patterned tiles. To the far left, a scene of ancient Europe, with stone columns and buildings behind two ladies who appear to be attending a seated gentleman, bearded, and wearing a crown of leaves, most likely a river god as he is seated by an urn spouting water, and near a river, and thus perhaps a personification of the Tiber. To the far right, a scene of local industry in the East, with chinoiserie figures wearing sunhats made from straw, gathered around a basic loom on which they appear to be weaving patterned fabric. The top border is painted to the left with tiny pink blossom and a bird in flight. More birds fly from left to right and can be noted perched amidst exotic foliage. The verso is painted with a simple scene of a rocky outcrop, again applied with crushed Mother of Pearl, a lone figure in dark robes holding a specimen plant in a pot. Marked to the bottom right ''Oct 2 Gamble according to the late Act 1740''. Guard length 10 inches or 25.5cm See a similar fan lot 7 Tennants fan sale 7/12/19, with different monture. Sold for £250 .
