HISTORY OF THE FAN OVER THE CENTURIES

From Japan to Spain via France

THE LANGUAGE OF THE FAN "ABANICO

The fan was an effective tool for flirting when it was forbidden in public.
When ladies were accompanied by their mothers or an escort to ensure their good behavior, the fan was a means of communicating with the knights.
This explains why, at the time of Louis XV, King of France, etiquette forbade court ladies to open fans in the presence of the queen.
Until 1939 in the Court of England, the fan was mandatory for the ladies in the receptions and official ceremonies.
In Spain, this particular language became at the end of the seventeenth and beginning of the eighteenth, the closest ally of the Spanish women for the flirt.
Today it seems that this tradition has disappeared, but you never know.

Here are the rules you need to know to communicate with fans.

Close the fan and touch the right eye: "When will I see you?"
Make threatening movements with your closed fan: "Don't be so reckless"
Cover the left ear with the open fan: "Don't reveal our secrets"
Touch the top of the fan with your finger, "I want to talk to you"
Open and close fan repeatedly: "You are cruel"
Open the fan fully: "Wait for me"
Place the fan behind the head: "Don't forget me"
Place the fan behind the head with his finger extended: "Goodbye"
Place the fan in front of the face with the right hand, "Follow me"
DePlace the fan in front of the forehead, "You have changed"
Take the fan with his left hand: "We see each other"
Operate the fan with his right hand, "I love another"
Take the open fan in his right hand: "You are too serious"
Move the fan in her hands: "I hate you"
Move the fan around her cheek: "I love you"
Fan placed near heart: "You have earned my love"
A quick movement of the fan "I love you to bits"
A slow movement "I am a married womane and I don't care about you"
Closing it slowly "yes"
Closing it quickly "no"
Dropping the fan "I belong to you"
