Since antiquity fans has been a status symbol and a useful ornament. They have been used for cooling, air circulation, a ceremonial device and as a sartorial accessory throughout the world from ancient times. Fans were part of the social status for the Chinese people. A particular status and gender would link a specific type of fan to an individual. The folding fan was invented in Japan in the 8th century and taken to China in the 9th century. In the 1600s the folding fan, introduced from China, became popular in Europe.  PashminaAvailable in various colours

There is no recorded history as to who started using Pashmina, but Nepalese women have traditionally worn Pashmina shawls. Their ancestor have described Pashmina as sensual sublimity. It is they who perfected the skill to retrieve Pashmina up to 95% purity and the skill as such got passed from generation to generation as a heritage of Nepalese craft.
