If  you are a history buff or a fan of the hit show The Tudors on Showtime, then you know that Spain and France did not always  get along. Thankfully over the centuries diplomatic relations have thawed and turned for the better.  France's, Louis Vuitton and Spanish Actress Rossy de Palma represents one such friendly collaboration.

They have co-designed limited edition fans.  Monday May 18, for the day only, the fans will be on sale at Louis Vuitton's store in Cannes. The fans are also on sale in selected stores in Spain until June 30. The limited edition fans retail for 400 euros or  about $541. Check here for the current exchange rate.

The actress is an ambassador to OrphanAid Africa to where a portion of the fans' proceeds will be donated. Rossy De Palma is  fluent in  French, English, Spanish, and her native tongue; Catalan.

OrphanAid Africa (OA) is a U.S. 501c3 non-profit organization headquartered in San Francisco California.
