These delicate beauties were a dream of Ariel Ash.
She had a photo from a couture shoot for inspiration, the white drabs and some of the peacock feathers. To achieve this look on a structure that is danceable, I made shorter 3 prong staves. Each fan has 8 staves with approximately 50 30″ peacock feathers and 32 drabs.
Peacock is really delicate and even more so when bleached like this. Although these fans are not for whipping, these have a gorgeous shimmy shake to them that no other feather comes close with.
