String Of Feathers

Two feather strings prepared for sewing on a textile. On the larger of the two, the feathers diminish in size toward one end. The shorter piece has smaller feathers overall. Both are covered mostly with feathers with bare, cotton cords at the ends, suggesting they are complete strings. Cords are Z-spun and 2S-plied. Feathers are likely flamingo. Found wrapped around a short piece of pithy wood.
