Description
A fly-whisk is a tool that is used to swat flies. A similar gadget is used as a hand fan in hot tropical climates, sometimes as part of regalia, and is called a chowrie, chÃÂmara, or prakirnaka in South Asia and Tibet. In Indonesian art, a fly-whisk is one of the items that is associated with Shiva.
