About this design

From Rimsky-Korsakov's Scheherazade: a queen who spins stories night after night to outrun death, until storytelling itself becomes power, and mercy at last awakens.

Every design starts as Aubrey's own artwork. The silk twill is woven in China, the home of silk; each scarf is then printed, finished by hand and signed in Bangkok.

Four ways to wear it

  • At the neckFold into a long band and knot loosely at the front or side.
  • In the hairAs a headscarf, or folded narrow and tied around a ponytail.
  • On a bagTied to the handle, so the color shows from across the room.
  • As a topFolded into a triangle and knotted behind the neck and back.

A 90 cm silk twill scarf from a famous fashion house costs over $600. This one is $165, designed by a working artist and sold direct.

Questions

How big is it?

90 × 90 cm (about 35 × 35 inches), the classic large square. Big enough to wear as a shawl or a top, and easy to fold into a neck scarf.

Will I have to pay import duty?

No. Every scarf ships from our studio in Bangkok with US import duties and fees already paid, so there's nothing to pay when it arrives.

How long does shipping take?

To confirm: free express shipping with tracking, arriving in 3 to 7 business days. We ship within the US only.

Can I return it?

To confirm: yes. Send it back unworn within 30 days for a full refund.

Is it a good gift?

Yes. Each scarf is signed by the artist, and the designs aren't sold in shops, so it's a gift few people will already have.

How do I look after it?

To confirm: dry clean, or hand wash cold with a mild silk detergent and dry flat away from sunlight.
