As a gift, fans are exquisite. There are some specific occasions and meanings that can be given to fans, but there are also some occasions that are not suitable for fans. In China's traditional culture, fans have a special symbolic meaning, and sometimes they are even regarded as things that break money, so some people don't like to accept fans.
In traditional culture, the bride and groom's family will give each other some gifts at the wedding, including fans. Because the pronunciation of the fan is similar to the pronunciation of Chinese characters such as "three" and "sand", which means breaking up, the couple will not fan the fan or give it to others, but wrap the fan in a red envelope and put it in a wedding gift.
Fans are meaning and symbol.
The meaning of fan is kindness and kindness, which symbolizes wisdom. The "fan" of a fan has the same pronunciation as the kind "goodness", that is, it is homophonic, so it symbolizes kindness and kindness. Since ancient times, many literati like to write poems and paint on fans. During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang looked carefree with a feather fan in his hand, so this fan was later regarded as a symbol of wisdom.
Folding fans can be folded and carried around, so they are widely spread. Besides the folding fan, there is also a round fan. Because it is round or nearly round, it means reunion, and it is also called gongshan or bowl of rice. It is the crystallization of China's local wisdom, which is closely related to people's lives. In ancient times, when people got married, they usually sent a round fan to express their love.
