This stunning scarf is handmade out of 100% silk.  The artisans employ a Shibori dying technique which creates dye-resists in the cloth by folding, pleating, and/or bunching the fabric. These folds are then bound with stitching, clamps or rubber bands, preventing the dye from penetrating. Soft, silky and lightweight, this scarf is large enough to wear as a wrap or scarf for spring and summer.

• Measures approximately 71" by 20"
• 100% Silk
• Please note:  Since each scarf is hand-painted designs may vary slightly, although the color patterns will be similar.  
• Shipped with cards containing information about fair trade and the corresponding artisan group.
