Exotic Bird Feathers & Body Plumage
for Hat Trim, Fans & Bustles
Ostrich plumes, guinea wing & body plumage, rooster cocktails, strung saddle hackles
This category brings together the most used feather types for period-correct and contemporary craftwork. For tall, elegant movement, see Ostrich Feather Plumes at 12–17 in; for patterned contrast, consider Guinea Hen Wing Feathers (˜5½–7 in) and Chinchilla-patterned hackles (4–6 in). Need a classic tapered shape? Choose Rooster Cocktails in 6–8 in or 8+ in. For strung saddle options, compare Furnace Hackles (6–8 in) with Natural Brown Hackles in 4–6 in or 6+ in depending on profile and span. Each selection emphasizes consistent length ranges and traditional aesthetics for fans, bustles, mask edging, and hat/turban plumes.
