Handwoven Silk Organic Cotton Scarf
Handwoven by the sea in Tasmania, Australia from 50% eri 'peace' silk* and 50% organic cotton. This shawl is part of the Raindrops on Roses collection: four unique, one-of-a-kind pieces inspired by summer sunshowers in the rose garden.
Soft, slinky, and with a pearly glimmer from the silk, this shawl can be worn around the shoulders on a summer's day or as a light scarf in the cooler months.
Designed to become a future heirloom and give you many years of use (and a touch of handmade luxury).
The geometric floral pattern handwoven into this fabric is based on an ancient motif -- it's a piece of wearable textile history, connecting you to an ancient tradition in a surprisingly contemporary design.
We're all trying to reduce our impact on the environment these days and choosing a locally-made, sustainable, eco-friendly 100% natural fibre product is a great way to lessen your footprint. No microplastics here!
* Eri 'peace' silk is collected without causing harm to the silkworm, unlike most other kinds of silk.
