## About this design

All is quiet amongst the silver birches. All you can hear is the soft rustle of leaves as the breeze caresses the branches. Whispered tales of Winter coming, are passed from tree to tree

Every design starts as Aubrey's own artwork, and each piece is made in Bangkok.

## Ways to wear it

-   **Wrapped**Loop it twice around the neck and let the ends fall.
-   **As a hijab**Wrap and pin it, with one end over the shoulder.
-   **As a shawl**Open it out over the shoulders on a cool evening.
-   **Belted**Thread it through belt loops or tie it at the waist.

## How this design began

The roots of an old banyan tree he spotted in a forest in Phuket, layered and mirrored.

## Questions

What sizes are there?

Long scarves are 65 × 180 cm, squares 90 × 90 cm (about 35 inches) or 70 × 70 cm, pareos 110 × 230 cm and pocket squares 42 × 42 cm. Each product page shows its size.

How long does delivery take?

In-stock pieces are delivered in 2 to 3 weeks by tracked shipping (US $30, UK £24, Europe €28, UAE AED 110, elsewhere $35 per order). Pieces marked "made to order" are made for you and delivered in 6 to 8 weeks. We ship worldwide.

Can I return it?

Yes, within 14 days of delivery if it's unworn and in its original packaging. Returns go back to Aubrey's studio in Bangkok; you pay the return postage, and we refund the price of the piece once it arrives. [Returns in full](https://thekansocollective.com/terms#returns).

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.
