Women's Red Phoenix Paisley Silk Twill Scarf – Printed Mulberry Silk, Hand-Rolled Hem

The paisley is one of the oldest motifs in textile history, born in Persia and carried along trade routes into every culture it touched. Here it is drawn as a phoenix: wings and tail unfurling into coral, rust and olive scrollwork across a pale blush ground, held inside a fine printed border. Silk twill has a soft sheen and enough body to hold a knot without slipping, so the scarf keeps its shape across the shoulders and sits neatly at the neck. The blush ground keeps the bolder reds wearable, lifting cream, camel, navy and denim without competing. Every edge is rolled and stitched by hand. Measuring 90 by 90cm in 100% mulberry silk, it arrives in a Silk & Bears gift box. Designed in the UK and made by artisans in China. Dry clean recommended. Alternatively hand wash cold with a mild detergent, do not wring or tumble dry. Dry flat away from direct sunlight and cool iron on the reverse. Silk 100% Colour: red
