palm-leaf
Fan-shaped tropical blade
Palm-leaf describes things made from or resembling the frond of a palm tree.
A palm-leaf fan is woven from dried palm fronds.
Palm-leaf manuscripts, used across South and Southeast Asia for centuries, were texts inscribed on prepared strips of palm leaf: ancient Buddhist scriptures preserved on palm-leaf.
The term also appears in architectural ornamentation mimicking the shape of palm fronds.
