A feather duster is a specific type of duster that consists of a plastic handle and a cleaning-contact surface segment attached with natural or synthetic feathers. It usually costs less than a natural feather duster, but it is easier to maintain and lasts longer. It cleans dust based on the principle of static electricity, attracting dust and small debris such as dander from furniture and surfaces.
