Herringbone Silk Scarf in Coral | Vera Echo

Herringbone Silk Scarf in Coral | Vera Echo

$143.00

A hand-painted scarf made from fine Habotai silk.

A lustrous scarf, painted with a herringbone pattern in a gradient of coral.

About the process: Darla starts by laying out her hand-drawn pattern to be traced onto a length of raw silk. The silk is then stretched flat on a frame. Each line of the pattern is then carefully plotted with a resist, called gutta. Then, with a fine brush, each section is filled in with color. Once dye is applied and the material is dry, the scarf is carefully rolled in newsprint to avoid the colors from running. Rolled in this newsprint, the scarf is then hung in a steamer for 3 hours, to set the dye. Finally, it is washed and hung up to dry. The finest of the silk scarves are then hemmed by hand.

8 mm weight, raw edges

60” long x 28” wide

Hand wash cold. Air dry. To reduce wrinkling, sprits with a fine-mist spray bottle or hang in a steamy bathroom.

Designed, painted, + finished by Darla
