We've decided to print our most popular Poppy design tie onto some amazing hand-woven, Fair-Trade* silk scarves! Three poppy clusters adorn the end of this scarf. Just like the ties, we hand-screen them all in our Detroit studio.
Perfect for tying as an ascot, bundling around your neck, or flowing freely.
This is a soft, extremely lightweight gauzy and delicate larger scarf than our silk ascot, measuring about 13.5" x 69" + knotted fringe. Note: minor imperfections are part of the charm and character of handcrafted silk.
* We are very concerned about the material quality and working conditions from which obtain the fabric we print on.
So what is Fair Trade?
"Fair Trade" creates relationships between producers, traders and consumers in a manner that ensures that goods producers work in safe conditions, are paid fair wages, and are mindful of the environment. Fair Trade sourced products contribute to sustainable development by offering better conditions to, and securing the rights of, marginalized producers and workers especially in exports from developing countries to developed countries.
Our scarves are handwoven in Thailand from the silk of the Bombyx Mori, the domesticated silk worm. It is entirely dependent on humans for its reproduction and no longer occurs naturally in the wild.
