Three thin bone (or less likely tortoise) fan blade/stick fragments representing two fan blades. The bone is cut and shaped in pieces less than 1 mm thick and approximately 0.25 inches in width. Two fragments mend, but no fragment makes a complete blade. One fragment has a cut or drilled hole at one end, while another fragment has what appears to be a drilled hole but the end has broken in half. Just before the other broken end of one of the blades, there are two small notches on either side of the flattened piece. One fragment has a curved and finished end.
