The « Palmettes » shape stands for non-pleated hand-fans, where each “palm” is tied to the other by a thread. In the tradition of the original Maison, these hand-fans represented the French Couture savoir-faire. Through this creation in leather, Duvelleroy shades a new light on a classic shape though the introduction of this rather un-traditional material in the world of fan-making.
