Pure Silk Scarf - Lilac & Sky

About this Promotion

SIZE
131 x 23 cm (51" x 9") The mannequin is an accurate Uk size 10-12
This silk scarf is sewn at double thickness to create a smart scarf that's neat & tidy to wear (& won't dangle into your coffee-cup ;-)

FABRIC
Made from old-fashioned 100% Silk 'Satin-Crepe' a sumptuous, shiny, weighty silk. Satin-crepe is a type of weave with a beautiful drape and luxurious feel. It will mould into soft folds once handled, and can be worn by men too. Washed gently by hand, it should last a very long time.....

DESIGNS
The designs are created from motifs copied from butterfly wings which I layer into patterns with oil paints on a large canvas. The paintings are then printed on the silk by the Centre of Advanced Textiles in Scotland. Once the fabric has returned to me, I cut and hand sew the prints into silk scarves.
