With the deep black background, the leaves--in rust, gold, yellow, red, and purple--seem to glow on this scarf, not unlike light shining through a stained glass window.
I painted this one-of-a-kind velvet scarf with fiber reactive dyes using a combination of silk-painting techniques. The scarf was first dyed solid black, then dye was carefully removed leaving white leaf shapes, which were then re-painted with colored dyes. I have steam set the scarf after each step to insure the colors will be fade resistant and permanent.
The 11" x 60" scarf is 82% rayon and 18% silk. I recommend hand washing, and care instructions will be included with the scarf.
Please note: Colors you see on your computer screen may vary slightly from the actual colors. Also, remember this is a one-of-a-kind order hand painted item, so variations and imperfections may occur in the design. It's all part of the creative process and what makes each piece unique!
