Style notes

Now in a versatile square shape, this Shibori silk scarf wrap has striking pink stripes that add a statement to a crisp white shirt, denim or a simple black knit. Fold it into a loose triangle, wrap it once around your neck and tie a relaxed knot at the front, letting the points fall down your chest.

Product Description

Bold stripes in pink on soft ivory habotai silk fabric Hand-dyed using itajime shibori, the Japanese clamp-resist technique.

At 44 x 44 inches (112 x 112 cm), it is generous enough to wear in many ways: knotted at the neck, draped as a shawl, folded into a headscarf, worn as a wrap or sarong, or tied to a handbag. Because every piece is dyed by hand, no two are exactly alike, and slight variations in the stripes are part of its character.

Story

Itajime is a technique of Shibori resist dyeing which uses pieces of wood clamped around sections of folded fabric to resist the dye in particular shapes. Celebrating the beautiful art of Japanese Itajime, this collection has been created by two of India’s respected Master Artisans. Each scarf has been folded, individually clamped and resist-dyed in striped shapes. Hand finished edges.
