ribbon wand
Twirling dance prop
A ribbon wand is a stick with a long, flowing ribbon attached, twirled to create spirals and patterns in the air.
It's used in rhythmic gymnastics as competition apparatus and sold as a children's toy.
The ribbon typically measures several meters and responds dramatically to movement: She practiced her ribbon wand routine for the floor exercise.
