This Vortice Nordik Decor is not particularly old. It's still made the same today. All of Vortice have their blades installed on the side of the motor and a lot of Marellis had that too. It's common on Italian fans.
The ad says it's Athena on the unusual fan but that's probably just the name of the model.
Really? I often posted ball and socket fans in my sighting thread with metal blades before.

I keep forgetting these are not American/Canadian fans, that explains the difference in style.
I think in sightings I usually don't pay attention to the canopies much.

I like this! If only the blades were wider... Too bad about the white blades. How recent would this one be? Interesting. I never knew other companies made this style of fan for the overseas market. It almost looks like a Canarm CP48, besides the canopy. Now this I love! This appears to be a later model. I wonder what the blades reverse to. Another cute fan. Yet another beauty. This looks just like the real thing. Could this be affiliated with Moss?

Theses TAT of this age came with white blades half of the time.
The Westinghouse Princess Trio would be 2002 to present.
This ''Caribbean Breeze'' style of fan was probably one of the fan seen under the most different names. 4 Saisons imported it too, they are common to see in Italy, occasional in France and I have even seen them in Cameroon and in Tchad.
The cool curve metal blade fan with the blades installed on the other side reminds me more of a SMC expect for the canopy.
Guibb was sold to France somewhere between 1992 to 1994 so their fans seen in France are usually from the mid 1990's to present while the ones in Canada are more from the mid 1980's to early 1990's.
The AD shows the two sides of the blades of that Nadair spinner.

Westinghouse changed their boxes several times between that time, so the date is probably more specific... This ''Caribbean Breeze'' style of fan was probably one of the fan seen under the most different names. 4 Saisons imported it too, they are common to see in Italy, occasional in France and I have even seen them in Cameroon and in Tchad. I mistyped that. Fixed. Guibb was sold to France somewhere between 1992 to 1994 so their fans seen in France are usually from the mid 1990's to present while the ones in Canada are more from the mid 1980's to early 1990's. I didn't know Guibb still existed. The AD shows the two sides of the blades of that Nadair spinner. Looking it again, you're right. The picture must not have loaded the first time.

Thanks for the link. It's interesting to see that they carry a lot of Hunter Products, compared to the small selection of actual Guibb-branded fans. Also, I wonder how long it's been since their website was updated...

They are an exclusive importer of Hunter fans in France just like USHA is for India.

How many of these have been spotted over the years? It appears as if the canopy is bent... I love it! That would be a Heritage. That looks amazing cheap! Another awesome fan. Albeit intriguing, I have never been a "fan" of Vortice Nordik Décors...

It's the 3rd Elge that I post in this thread plus I've see at least two other ones but it's the first time that I see one in this size and in this good condition with the sticker still there.
Well I'm glad you did not start crying because the little image in blanc show the brass fan with white blades.
I've posted these six bladed fans before. They are from the Styling brand.
I used to have two of these Majestic GE vents on my veranda in the same configuration as this, the pre 2007 version and they were pretty good. The controller they came with was very cool.
I love Vortice Nordik Decors but without lights and in the classic none marbled glossy brown color.
