This will come in handy for my online novel (http://societybook.wordpress.com); these details will make my story sound even more believable, especially since one of my characters is a huge flirt.Moniquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08871703699968602290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-816215309027871000.post-12039400448040578042010-03-09T06:00:19.978-08:002010-03-09T06:00:19.978-08:00Jean-Francois de Buren - (I wish I had a name like...Jean-Francois de Buren - (I wish I had a name like that) thanks for stopping by.<br /><br />Heather - Ya, I would think sign language might work a little better. Fan language seems complicated. <br /><br />Leah Marie Brown - I found this fan language in: Memory's Daughters: The Material Culture of Remembrance in Eighteenth-Century America. It is in my sources below.<br /><br />Thanks for the link!

Where did you find it? <br /><br />On a side note, I just found out that Christie's recently auctioned off the alliance rings of the wife of the Duc de Chartres.

Sort of like one's gowns...<br /><br />If you want to read more or see images of the alliance rings, visit my blog:<br /><br />http://leahmariebrown.blogspot.com/<br /><br />Thanks for another interesting read.Leah Marie Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05432159961271108072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-816215309027871000.post-7956128155779986152010-03-02T09:21:00.203-08:002010-03-02T09:21:00.203-08:00I didn't know about the spelling things out wi...I didn't know about the spelling things out with the fan!
