The story
Flowered medallions
MONA is a lattice of flowered medallions in green, orange and gold, hand-drawn in the spirit of antique tiles. Opened with a flick, the fan brings an elegant breath of fresh air, in town or on the beach; closed, it slips into your bag and follows you all summer.
An everyday accessory you keep for years, and love to give.
A tip from Vent de bohème
To make the most of summer outdoors, discover our Chilean deckchairs and outdoor cushions, drawn in the same floral spirit. And as a gift, all our models are gathered in the Hand fans category.

Care
To keep it for years
- It is not machine-washable: dust the leaf with a soft cloth.
- Store it closed, flat, away from damp and direct sunlight.
- A stain? Dab with lukewarm water without rubbing, then let it dry open.
- Always open it along the pleats, with a flick of the wrist.
Frequently asked questions
You may be wondering…
How big is the fan?
Closed, it measures 23 cm; open, it spans 42 cm: the standard size of the traditional Spanish fan, which fits in a handbag.
Is it sturdy?
Yes: the cotton fabric is stiffened before being pleated, then glued onto a wooden frame. It holds up far better than a paper fan or a promotional fan.
Does it come in other colours?
The MONA design comes in this single version. Find all our models in the Hand fans category.
Is it a good gift idea?
It is one of our most-gifted items: light, useful all summer long and shipped in plastic-free packaging, ready to give.
Where is it made?
The design is hand-drawn in France; the fan is pleated and mounted by hand in a family workshop in Spain, the home of the fan.
