As widely
used objects, fans appear in Sāmoa in many different design variations.
Frequently represented in collections are fans with a wooden handle, the
upper end of which is braided with strips of coconut leaves, which also
form the fan leaf. In this fan, coloured hibiscus bast strips and plant
fibres were also woven into the fabric; the handle is missing. Text:

The object is
part of an extensive donation by Wilhelm Solf (1862-1936), who was a
colonial official in Sāmoa from 1898 and was governor of the colony of
German Samoa from 1900 to 1910. The exact circumstances of the
acquisition by Solf are not yet known. Text: Ulrich
