Amid Spain's heatwaves, the centuries-old abanico fan makes a comeback

— 1d

Artisans are reviving and preserving the craft with handmade pieces alongside mass-produced designs, while flamenco performances continue to popularize and symbolize this cultural accessory.

My grandmother had one of these she'd snap open in church during summer mass, still have it in a drawer somewhere.
