These Smudge Fans are made of local West Michigan Peacock feathers and upcycled authentic leather scraps from furniture making. No two feathers are alike. Smudge fans are used to waft smoke from herbal plants around a space to aid in clearing it of negative energies or to fan the smoke upward during dance rituals or ceramonies. Each fan is crafted with care, love & positive intentions but also with respect to the culture and tradition of the Indigenous peoples where these practices and many other herbal practices originate. Use caution when buring smudges. Never leave anything burning unattended.
