STANDARD - SATINETTE ADDENDUM:
Variation in color markings in the several varieties of Oriental Frills.
GENERAL.: Color markings in Satinettes and Blondinettes are identical except for the color white. In Satinettes the head, neck and breast, body under parts, muffs and the primary flights 10x10, not less than 5, must be white. The beak is pale flesh color, and the eye very dark brown. The wing coverts (including lesser, median and greater coverts. tertials, scapulars, and secondary wing flights) and tail feathers of the Satinette are identical to those of the Blondinette of the same color. The Blondinette, lacking the designated white areas of the Satinette, is essentially the same color throughout.
Ground color of the laced or spot feathers of both Satinettes and Blondinettes should be as clear white as possible except in the case of sulphur varieties described below. The laced feathers have quills of the basic color of the bird. Lacing or edging, whether heavy, medium or fine, penciled, arrow pointed or ticked, must be distinct, even regular and well defined.
BLACK LACED SATINETTES
Each feather of the wings and tail (from a line across the rump), except those of the prescribed white arcs, should be edged in black-coal black.
DUN LACED SATINETTES

BLUE LACED SATINETTES
Each colored feather of the wings should be edged in the grey-black or blue-black color of a normal checkered pigeon. This edging must be even whether penciled, arrow pointed, or ticked, preference to be given in the order named. Tail, dark blue, having a black band at lower extremity. On this band, or replacing it evenly in each feather, should be a clear round white spot," moon", or bar, clearly defined and limited to the band area.
SILVER LACED SATINETTES
Same as blue, except that wing feather edging is the soft silvery gray or gray-black of a normal silver checkered pigeon.
