Peacock feathers
I bought these in India in 05', surprisingly they survived the trip back home safely packed in my luggage and survived a few moves since I've been back!
They were purchased in the shadiest market in Hydrabad (Southeast India), I had to hide my camera and try my best to look like a local, which was hard considering I was the only one in T-shirt and shorts and gawking at all the ridiculous stuff being sold. What ridiculous stuff you ask? Pigeons, Camel Meat, Rodents, Rabbits, Cats, Dogs and whatever else you could possibly want...and most of the animals were crammed in small cages. Needless to say I didn't barter for the Peacock feathers I paid the full $0.50 for them.
