The tips are pierced, with pink roses mid-panel: a small cream brisé, with attractively pierced tips and a smattering of lilac flowers painted on the recto. And additionally, a folding fan with cream wood monture, gilded, the mid and lower gorge sections almost brisé but topped with a deep band of cream gauze painted with violet flowers on slender stems, the flowers tumbling down to feature on the upper wood panel of the gorge (6)
