Some are silk, some are hand-woven cotton. Some are silk velvet, and some silk & rayon devore (burn-out). ALL are beautiful! Just like my jackets, these find homes quickly. All are hand dyed, or hand painted, some are both. Some are long and some not-so-long, some are wide and some are narrow. You can find one for any outfit, or any person. These make spectacular gifts! I’ve even handpainted scarves to coordinate with wedding invitations as wedding gifts. Now that’s a unique gift.
