I want to list this scarf/pom-pom/feather/collar/boa thing on eBay but have no idea what to call it!

The main part is about 32" x 10" and made of some kind of feather, possibly ostrich. It also has two pom-pom jobbies as you can see.





Any thoughts please? What category would you list it under?

It's called a 'wrap', isn't it?

I like how you would rather pick it up with a pole than handle it yourself.

hehe Just trying to show a different angle. I think it's quite dead.

Anyway, great efforts so far chaps but if you don't mind I'll wait until some females appear (they know these things).

Actually it might be half a poodle.

I think thats a wrap. Had one similar for my leavers ball a few years back, although it didn't have furry pom poms, just ribbons.

Mrs Maser say that's a muffler.

Not a wrap.

Her description "A faux fur muffler with distinctive pom pom embellishments".

(Spot the English degree in our household).

Deal! That sounds so good I think I'll buy it back nuts

However it is feather - bloke at auction house reckoned it was ostrich but we can't be sure. It's probably 40 years old, maybe more.
