Veta Vera Handwoven Fan – Ghana
The Veta Vera Handwoven Fan uses all natural materials to showcase style and function.

The fan features a handle wrapped in soft leather for comfort and contrast. The fan doubles as wall art when not in use. Because this is a handcrafted item, each will vary slightly.
