Some pieces you wear, and some pieces you feel. This off-white silk scarf falls into the second category. Hand-painted on soft 8mm habotai silk, it carries a bold abstract black design that flows across the fabric like ink on water. Because each one is painted by hand, no two are ever alike.
The hand-rolled hem adds a lovely finishing touch, and the silk itself has that weightless, cool-against-skin quality that makes it a pleasure to wear season after season. At 21 inches wide and 83 inches long, it drapes beautifully whether you loop it around your neck, pull it over your shoulders as a shawl, or let it fall open as a lightweight alternative to a jacket.
It works just as well with a simple white tee as it does over an evening outfit. Care is gentle: hand wash in cold water or machine wash on delicate, then hang to dry.
A piece made slowly, worn often, and loved for years.
