Filigree is a white marking that appears as elegant swirls that branch out of other white markings, including free white.

Filigree will always reach "out" of other markings, and will never "cut in" to them or make them smaller.
Filigree can be completely hidden, and does not have to interact with all white markings present.
Filigree will always have crisp, smooth edges.

Genotype: fefe
Locus:  Not shared with any known genes

• Coat: Filigree is a white marking.
• Mane and Tail: White where touching marking.
• Skin: Pink under marking.
• Eyes: Not affected.
• Hooves: Cream when touching marking.

Range:

• Minimum: Filigree can be hidden.
• Maximum: Filigree markings can span across the entire body part where a marking is present (e.g., an entire leg, the entire barrel, the entire head).

Interactions:

• Cuirass: All modifications made to a Cuirass marking by Filigree will be symmetrical.
• Roan, Blanched, False Leopard, Rabicano, Sabino: Filigree does not interact with white markings that have blended, broken, or speckled edges.

This trait is attached to horses that Carry Filigree.
Filigree is a white marking that appears as elegant swirls that branch out of other white markings, including free white.

Filigree is recessive; a horse needs to be homozygous with two copies of the gene (fefe) for it to be visible.
A carrier with only one copy of the gene (nfe) will not express Filigree.

Genotype: nfe
Locus:  Not shared with any known genes
Horses with 'nfe' will be noted as 'Carrying Filigree' but will not show the gene.

Expression of heterozygous (carried) Filigree:

• Coat: Not affected.
• Mane and Tail: Not affected.
• Skin: Not affected.
• Eyes: Not affected.
• Hooves: Not affected.
