Plant dyed silk scarf - Tauhou
Botanically imprinted with real leaves in a silvery yellow colour palette that reminds me of the little native Waxeye or Tauhou bird. In this scarf are Kawakawa, daisy, liquid amber, pin oak and maple.
The art of eco printing is a zero waste technique involving several steps. First the fabric is prepared to ensure bright permanent colours. Local plants are harvested sustainably and then thoughtfully placed within the bundle of fabric to impart their natural pigments into the fibres. The fabric is then washed and pressed, ready to wear and be treasured.
This is a woven lightweight silk with a smooth sheen and soft drape. This accessory is one of a kind, and makes a perfect gift to yourself or someone special.
Scarf measures 150 cm x 28 cm. Silk weight 8 momme
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Hand wash in a pH neutral detergent, I recommend a wool wash.
Line dry in the shade. Hot iron.
