Fan of watercolour painted paper, with applied rice-paper, straw splints and pieces of ribbed silk. The front shows two Chinese figures (a woman and a boy?) in a landscape, one is seated between two trees and holds a pheasant perched on the figure's left arm. there are two vases of flowers near the figure, and in the background is a stretch of water. The other figure is to the right, carrying a yoke with baskets hanging from it and another pheasant sitting on the yoke. The heads of the figures are applied, with painted features. Vases, baskets and the figures' garments are made up of different coloured ribbed silk. The tree-trunks are made of applied lengths of straw splints, varnished and painted to resemble bark. The pattern on the back of the leaf consists of flowering trees and plants growing beside a stream. The folds at the back have been reinforced with paper glued on.
Chinoiserie. The fan has mother-of-pearl studs.
Ivory sticks and guards are carved with figures of animals and birds, latticework, and floral stems, some of the last growing from vases. One of the guards has been mended.
