A collection of fans, first started in the 1950s, will be dispersed at Chilcotts of Honiton in east Devon on September 8.

The 50-strong group, split into 13 lots, belonged to the late Jane Campbell-Allan, a local north Devon collector and long-standing member of the International Fan Circle whose interest was ignited at a young age when an elderly aunt gave her an antique fan.

Examples date from the late 18th century to the present day and include a 19th century carved and pierced Chinese ivory fan (estimate £200-300) and Cantonese Mandarin painted fan with a detailed colourful leaf (£100-150).

This 19th century Brussels lace fan is one of two in a single lot estimated at £80-120.
