Grey silk scarf square Silver Fox Hand dyed silk scarf Grey white square scarf Silk scarf women uk Birthday Gift her Unique silk gifts mum

Size approx. 87 x 87 cm. This is a LIGHTWEIGHT HABOTAI 6 silk scarf. Square silk scarf hand-dyed in many shades of grey with hints of white (there can be many of them in different subdued shades such as purplish, blueish, or greenish. Enjoy the colour palette). I chose this combination as I wanted to achieve a neutral grey finish with hints of darker anthracite shade.

All my scarves are handmade either by using hand-dying (shibori) or hand-painting techniques or a combination of both. They are unique pieces. They are steam fixed in high temperatures, tied, and therefore pre-crushed/pre-creased. The small creases then create a beautiful pattern of blending colours. Steam makes the dyes even more vibrant. They are not printed.

A little bit about me:

As a classically trained fine artist, I’ve always been intrigued by the idea of wearable art. So naturally, painting on silk has come as the best idea. Heron Design Studio aims to create such wearable pieces of art that will be timeless and versatile. Every piece that is created is unique.

Every design is sketched first on a piece of paper. That is followed by colours being carefully picked. After that, the scarf is painted (freehand) with no stencils or aids. Small imperfections are just a part of the hand painting process and make the painting unique and unrepeatable. Each of the motives created has a different technique (metallic outline of watercolour technique etc.), and the different material (different types of silk fabrics) used. That is because suitability is carefully considered.
