Description
Feather dusters remove loose, superficial dust from delicate surfaces, such as paintings, and lampshades. They are also useful to dust fragile items such as porcelain, and glassware. It is easier to use this feather duster with a small plastic handle, than the one with a longer handle. The smaller handle is approximately 19cm / (7½”) long, and the feathers are approximately 17cm / (6¼”) long. Made from dyed real ostrich feathers, with a plastic handle. The colours of the feathers vary from brilliant blue to pink, and yellow, although we cannot guarantee what colour you will receive.
