Women's Purple Brushstroke Hand-Dyed Silk Shawl – Mulberry Silk Wrap

A wearable burst of colour: aqua, violet, lime and sunset gold melt into one another like lantern light on water. Woven on traditional looms in Vietnam from 100% pure mulberry silk, dyed by hand in small batches and dried in the open air on bamboo frames. The dye moves differently every time — your shawl exists once, and only once. Generously sized at 85 × 180 cm: an evening wrap over a black dress, a wedding or bridesmaid shawl, a head scarf, or the lightest layer of luxury in your suitcase. Arrives gift-ready in Silk & Bears packaging — silk is the traditional 12th-anniversary gift. Rated 5. 0★ by customers. One of one. When this dye lot is gone, it never returns. Designed in England · Handwoven in Vietnam · As featured in British Vogue, Tatler, Grazia & T Magazine Your shawl is woven and dyed entirely by hand. First wash: rinse separately in cool water with silk-friendly detergent, as artisan dyes settle in their first wash. Lay flat to dry in shade; steam on low. The fine slubs and edge variations of hand-loomed silk are hallmarks of authenticity prized by collectors.
