A good ceiling fan is hard to find. So we were particularly smitten when we spotted a vintage caned number in the Mallorca summer house of designer and ceramicist Daniela Jacobs (see Maximalist/Minimalist: A Ceramicist’s Airy, Open Summer House on Mallorca). It sent us on a days-long quest to find something similar—and just in time for summer heat.
