Silk Shawls

 
Silk Shawl   Silk Shawl
 
These lined silk shawls are composed of an original silk print and pieced with silk crepe, silk dupioni and sandwashed silk (see fabric types and colors). The designs are permanent and can be dry-cleaned or spot washed. They are luxurious to wear and can be enjoyed as a wall hanging, too.

 

The image designs are complemented by the colors and silks listed below, and by black (the predominant color is listed with the design):

  • Cecropia - bronze dupioni

  • Chanate - grass green dupioni

  • Leopard Frog - black crepe de chine

  • Luna Moth - olive washed silk

  • Turtle - brandy washed silk

  • Jack-In-The-Pulpit - eggplant crepe de chine

  • Ladyslipper - bronze dupioni

Silk dupioni is a crisper, slubbed silk, with an irridescent quality; sandwashed silk is brushed to give it a velvet softness; and silk crepe de chine has a subtle texture and a soft "hand."

The shawls measure approximately 19" x 84".
