1.8 metre Festival Feather

Description

1.8 metre Festival Feather – Great for events or in the garden.

You can use a 1.8 metre Festival Feather (just another name for a Banner.) as outdoor display banners or garden decorations. Great in the back yard or in groups for special events like weddings, open houses or garden displays. They are made with high quality, heavy duty components to withstand, as much as is possible, our harsh Australian elements. The banner itself is sewn with SolarMax banner cloth, a very high quality 4 oz Oxford nylon.

The 2 piece pole is strong fiberglass with a protective cap at the top to save wear n tear on the cloth. A great advantage of the SolarMax cloth is it’s ‘colour density’. It shows deep and rich colours because it it’s thickness. This is different to the fabrics we use to make kites. They are more transparent as the sun shines through them. This is desirable because a kite sail needs to be strong yet light for best kite performance.

Premier Kites in the USA designed these 1.8 metre Festival Feathers to conveniently pack in a PVC bag. If you want to store it, the whole thing packs away into a bag that is only a metre long.

These Feathers are a smaller brother to 4 metre banners, like this Licorice Banner, that we also stock.

Use:

We use them as displays at kite festivals. But most of the ones we’ve seen as used as either decorations in the front yard or as a few grouped together for display in things like outdoor weddings and events or for real estate open houses or garden shows. We know of a couple that use 6 of them as an outdoor aisle for their party event business.

What’s in the bag?

The 1.8 metre Festival Feather comes complete with everything you need to get them up and keep them up. The fabric banner is very well stitched with 4 oz woven dacron edging. The pole itself is 2 piece fiberglass with the top section fitting inside the lower half. You also get a heavy duty molded ground stake to complete the package. The bottom end of the banner has a shock cord loop that slips over the lug on the molded ground stake to stop the cloth banner from flying off in strong winds. This way, this is so the banner can never fly off the pole.

Erecting your feather is really really simple. Simply slip the 2 fiberglass rods together, drive the molded stake into the ground then slip the fiberglass pole in to this ground stake. If it’s a bit windy just loop the shock cord on the banner over the lug on the ground stake.

Why the price drop?

These feathers are new unopened items but we’ve had them in the shop for quite a while (that’s why the packaging is a bit faded and worse for wear) so it’s time to move them on.
