The ones I recall were much like the one above. Granny had a rug beater made of the heavier fronds or caning with an open pattern. I was told that when I was younger that I said the rug beater must have come from some really important funeral, it was so big.

I have not seen any like that. You must have some precious memories, too? I will try to find some like the ones I remember.
