Women's Blue The Naturalist's Sketchbook Animal Print Silk Twill Scarf – Cornflower & Ivory

Twenty animals drawn the way a Victorian naturalist might have recorded them, in fine engraved line on an ivory page. A giraffe stands at the centre, with a zebra, hippo, rhino, elephant, lion, gorilla, okapi and ring-tailed lemur gathered around it, each inked in its own shade of blue from deep indigo to pale cornflower, inside a cornflower blue border. The scarf is printed on 100% mulberry silk twill, which has a soft sheen and enough body to hold a knot without slipping, and every edge is rolled and stitched by hand. At 90 x 90cm it works as a neckerchief, a headscarf or a shoulder wrap, and the blue and ivory palette sits easily with navy, white, camel and denim. Designed in the UK and made by artisans in China, it arrives in a Silk & Bears gift box. 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: blue
