Athena punished Laocoon, by sending two giant sea serpents to strangle and kill him and his two sons. 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 He photographed the Laocoön sculpture in a museum in London; reworked, it became a long scarf of repeating figures.

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. --- More: [llms.txt](https://thekansocollective.com/llms.txt) · [Facts, prices and every design](https://thekansocollective.com/llm-info/) · [Shop](https://thekansocollective.com/aubrey-kurlansky/)
