Subjects
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. Strips of dyed hibiscus bast have also been woven into the openwork fan leaf. Text: Ulrich Menter
