The fan has a semicircular shape with a light beige background and darker beige ribs. A dark brown border runs along the top edge. The image depicts a peony plant with large flowers and leaves in various shades of grey and black. A few lines of Asian script are written vertically on the left side, accompanied by a small red seal. The fan's handle consists of multiple thin, light brown sticks fanned out at the bottom and connected to a small, rounded piece of wood.
