The (Abaniko) fan
The Abaniko refers to the native fan from the Philippines, which is made from the stems and leaves of an ornamental plant of the same name -- the abaniko (belamcanda chinensis). The traditional abaniko is a fan woven into the shape of a paddle, but the use of the term is also applied to the folding (Spanish) fan. Traditionally, the latter was used as part of the Filipina garment. Different ways of holding the fan signified different meanings -- an open abaniko which covers the chest area symbolizes modesty, while rapid fan movements showed displeasure.
