feather fans
Burlesque dancer's prop
Feather fans are large handheld fans made from decorative plumes, typically ostrich feathers, used as props in burlesque, cabaret, and striptease performances.
The dancer uses the fans to create visual drama while strategically concealing and revealing the body: She twirled the feather fans as she moved across the stage.
Outside performance contexts, feather fans appear as vintage décor or costume accessories.
