This is a metal hat feather for straw or felt cowboy hats. It is handmade in Mexico from fine alpaca with gold or silver plating. The silver version is finished in a bright silver.
The feather is engraved to mimic the look and irregularity of a natural feather, with sections and small swirls. The main vane is hand-painted deep black, which highlights the line of microbeads down the shaft.
A trademarked fastening system secures the feather to a hat band with a twist and a flip. It fits onto most hat bands.
