Hello ! Here is what I consider a very nice Fly Whisk ( Chanwar as it is locally called in Rajasthan) with gold decoration. Fly Whisks were symbols of Royalty alongwith the Umbrella, Standards, etc. Just posting this for information and to stimulate a discussion

A VERY NICE QUALITY ITEM AND IT CAN QUALIFY AS A WEAPON AS IN SOME AREAS OF THE WORLD YOU CAN CERTIANLY FIND YOURSELF IN A WAR WITH THE FLYS.

FLYWHISKS CAN BECOME QUITE ORNATE AS THEY DO SERVE AS STATUS SYMBOLS IN MANY PARTS OF THE WORLD. A PERSON WOULD HAVE TO BE CAREFUL WITH YOUR EXAMPLE IF YOU ACCIDENTLY HIT YOURSELF WITH THAT ONE IT WOULD BE SURE TO RAISE QUITE A BUMP.
