An exquisite Qing Dynasty folding fan, meticulously crafted using gilt filigree and cloisonné enamel techniques. Each rib of the fan is delicately inlaid with colorful enamel scrolls, lotus flowers, and imperial dragons amid swirling clouds. The detailing is precise, with pierced openwork, gilded accents, and miniature beads along the borders, emphasizing its likely courtly provenance. The central motif features a golden imperial dragon soaring through clouds, symbolizing power and auspiciousness. The fan folds and expands smoothly, with minimal signs of wear, preserving its historic integrity. Such enamel folding fans were typically used by imperial consorts or produced as tribute pieces during the Qing court era. A rare survivor with exceptional artistry and decorative charm.
