Samoan fans have been handed down in many different designs as widely used objects of daily use. 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. Text: Ulrich Menter

Provenance
This fan traces back to the collection of the Museum Godeffroy in Hamburg, which was dissolved in 1885. The museum preserved objects which captains and explorers of the trading company "Joh. Ces. Godeffroy & Sohn" had been bringing or sending back to Hamburg mainly from the South Seas since 1861. The provenance of the fan before its arrival at the Museum Godeffroy is currently unknown.
