The stunning yet delicate scarf is hand made from the silk of a vintage Japanese kimono.
It is a Tsumugi silk which is woven with cocoons as part of the thread. It is a speciality of Japan.
The pattern is created using the traditional Japanese technique of Shibori, where fabric is bound by hand to form shapes that create both a visual and textural pattern.
The colours red and black often appear together. Red is linked to the sun and is also called ‘the sacred colour’.
