Finished with a leather hanging loop, this fabulous feather duster will whip around the house collecting and capturing dust from ornaments, shelves, high furniture, light fittings and ceilings, often without the need for steps thanks to the long handle. Regarded as the queen of feather dusters, ostrich feathers are constructed from long barbules from a central shaft, each tiny barbule formed with hooked barbicels, so that the feather is made up of mini feathers! Because of this complex, delicate, construction dust is not swept away but captured in the tiny barbules, ensuring it is removed easily and, thanks to the lightness of the feathers, without disturbing the items being dusted. For these reasons, ostrich feather dusters are particularly effective and were regarded historically as status symbols in private households.

Please note, being a natural product feather colours may vary slightly from those shown.
