Considering feathers are very common here, alot of things have them, fashion accessories such as headbands, earrings, feather scarfs, on hats, skirts, vests, and costumes.
There is also a stick (made of bamboo or wood, I'm not sure) that asian parents use to discpline their children with (sometimes) with feathers on it, but i think they are just chicken feathers. But then again thats not a textile and I don't really know the reason they put the feathers on the stick.
Alot of fashion designers, also use feathers for their outfits, I think Alexander Mcqueen had one too that resembled a swan?
