    Description

    I have a lot of pink very rare Bird of Paradise feathers. As you can see in the photos, there is one double spray of feathers, one very large spray, one medium spray and 4 small sprays. There are 3 small feathers too. The color is consistent throughout, so I'm thinking that they are from the same dye lot. I Googled to see if there's a pink bird of paradise in nature, and the answer appears to be “No.”
    The feathers are extremely fine and delicate. So very beautiful...they move in the slightest breeze. What a great find for someone!
    The tiles in the background of the photos are 12 inches square, so that gives you an estimate of their size.
    All are full and in very good vintage condition.
    These are from a collection of feathers that my late mom had. I don't know why she had so many, but I think they were passed down to her from a couple of great aunts. I come from a long line of wonderful women who saved everything! And, they had great taste!
    Check out my other auctions for more feathers. There will be several lots.
    Stored in a first floor closet, not a basement or attic. No musty smells. Pet and smoke free home.
    I will be shipping these in a medium flat rate box - the long version - so that they won't be crushed in transit.
    Please ask questions before bidding.
