 Hand Painted Silk Scarves and Shawls

Note: Each hand-painted silk scarf I create is the very only one on this planet. I never use guides. I always paint by hand and never with stencils. If I ever paint a same design again, it may be similar but never exactly the same.

My lovingly handmade and hand-painted scarves are not mass produced products. If the scarf has any slight imperfections, please remember to enjoy it as the unique quality of an artist's hand.

Sizing details

Each silk scarf is hand hemmed and hand rolled, so its size may vary slightly. I am careful to list each item in both inches and cm. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

 Caring for Your Silk Takuyo Scarf

• Hand wash gently in cold water with a drop of natural soap. Rinse thoroughly.
• To dry: Lay the scarf within a clean, folded bath towel and gently pat dry. Hang to dry; avoid direct sunlight.
• To iron: Place a thin cotton fabric (like a bed sheet) on top of the scarf and iron lightly, using a medium to low setting.
• Please keep the scarf away from bleach, alcohol, and chlorine.

 

Are your silk scarves really hand painted?

Yes, they are, and I am the artist who paints them! Each scarf starts as a blank canvas. I work with a full range of color paints and additionally the color will mix as I go. That’s why there are so many colors on each scarf—the possibilities are endless!

Each silk scarf is absolutely unique wearable silk art and will make a beautiful, unforgettable gift.
