The first folding fans were made around 1000 A. D. in China, and were brought to Europe by Portuguese traders in the early 1500s.

One type of folding fans 【小题1】 (compose) of sticks of identical length held together at the bottom with a curved leaf of paper, silk, lace or other materials glued to the sticks. 【小题2】 type of folding fan is the brisé fan, 【小题3】 (consist) only of decorative sticks with no pleased (起褶的) leaf.

The brisé fan was popular in the 17th and early 18th centuries, but was never as widespread as the folding fan with a painted and pleated leaf. However, in the late 18th and early 19th century 【小题4】 (small) fans had come into fashion, perhaps due to the narrower, high-waisted dresses that could no longer accommodate large pockets beneath, 【小题5】 one could put a large fan. The smaller fan, often 【小题6】 (call) “opera” size, could have 【小题7】 (easy) slipped into a handbag. Whatever the reason, smaller fans saw 【小题8】 increase in popularity during this period. The 【小题9】 (carve) of the brisé fan is so delicate that it can set some fashionable ladies apart 【小题10】 others in a party. They carried brisé fans to make their simplicity echo the general simplicity of dress.
