A cream-colored brisé fan made almost entirely of carved and pierced ivory sticks. Painted on the ivory in the central shield is an image of a light-skinned girl holding a lamb. The girl wears a puffy, white, long-sleeved shirt, a long pink skirt with a medium blue belt, the same color blue shawl, and same color blue ribbon tied towards the top of her long, brown, wavy hair. The lamb she holds looks up at her with a jovial expression. It is perched on a ledge chest-level to the girl. The background of this image is painted with warm-brown trees and shrubbery against a large, pale-blue sky. All throughout the rest of the fan the ivory sticks are intricately carved in motifs of sinewy stems branching into flowers and veined leaves, accompanied by butterflies and birds, the space between the flora and fauna carved with a repeating pattern of small swirls. The ivory guards of the fan contain high-relief carvings of pagodas, flora, and various robed figures carrying scrolls. The rivet is fastened with a small circle of faceted glass resembling a diamond. Cream-colored silk ribbon connects the sticks.

A hand-held brisé ivory lace fan embroidered with intricate floral motifs. The fan's ivory sticks are carved with the same intricate floral motif within the lace. Within the lace, a monogram in an oval medallion at the center is flanked by diagonally-positioned pagodas on either side. Surrounding the oval medallion is an overall design of small flowering vine and birds, with a lace-like effect achieved by the carving of fine vertical lines to create a sheer ground for the solid motifs.
