The collection consists of 26 items dating from the 18th to the 20th century. Among them are six extraordinary pieces from the famous Parisian Alexandre manufactory. 

There are many purposes for the Coronini fans (half-mourning, wedding, engagement, evening) and, above all, many materials used to make their leaves (silk, Duchesse and Chantilly lace, kid leather, paper, ostrich feathers, horn, ivory) and sticks (mother-of-pearl, ivory, tortoiseshell, bamboo, wood, bone). 

Also included in the collection are three panel screens.
