Biography on feather workers researched on the internet for which we thank this help to perfect our knowledge
Attached is a pleasant text:
Featherwork is the activity which concerns the preparation of bird feathers and their use in the making of objects or ornaments often clothing
Featherwork is "one of the professions where there are the most manufacturing secrets. Even if the transformation stages are extremely rigorous and the same for all feather workers, there is then a know-how and a mastery of the material which favour the existence of these trade secrets". (Sylvie Perault, "La plume", Artisans de la scène: la fabrique du costume, CNCS exhibition catalogue, under the direction of Delphine.
It all starts with the selection of feathers, which offer an incredible and almost infinite palette of shapes, textures and colours.
