5"-6" Strung Fluffs

Product Details

These 5"-6" Strung Fluffs, also commonly referred to as strung marabou feathers, are hand sorted for uniform size and quality before stringing, helping reduce waste and the time required to sort individual feathers. Their soft, full appearance makes them especially useful for Native American feather bustle construction, dance regalia and other feather craft projects.

In modern Fancy Dance bustle construction, 5"-6" fluffs may be used in the base and inner rows of the bustle, where they provide fullness and strong areas of color around the primary feathers. They may also be used in the center rosette areas. When combined with longer, more flexible saddle hackles in the outer rows, the fluffs provide the dense foundation behind the flowing movement of the hackles.

Because the feathers are hand sorted and already strung, the craftsman can work with a more uniform supply of fluffs when constructing repeated rows, reducing the sorting required with loose feathers.

Select the fluff color desired. Approximately 130-200 per ounce.
