Silk Scarf (L) 'Wild about the Castle'

€70.00

‘Wild about the Castle’ incorporates a photo of the Black Castle and Travelahawk Beach in Wicklow together with imprint of the wild flowers that grow there - Buttercups, Sea Thrift and ferns. I aim to capture the movement of the wild flowers in the wind on the silk. The buttercups blooms are coming to an end soon so this is a limited edition scarf.

These handcrafted 100% Silk Scarfs are unique pieces of wearable art. Each hand painted in a light sensitive cyanotype and exposed to sunlight. Developed using seawater imbuing the spirit of the sea, a stunning blue image emerges shaped by nature.

Size: Large 140cm x 40cm
Fabric: medium weight Habatoi Silk weave

Each scarf comes beautifully packed in a black recycled gift box, accompanied by a care card that explains the cyanotype printing process and provides care instructions

The Process

The process begins with hand-painting the silk with cyanotype chemicals, followed by a delicate arrangement of seaside treasures on the fabric. Exposed to the sun's gentle rays, the scarf transforms into a stunning blue canvas, revealing intricate patterns shaped by nature itself. The print is then developed in seawater, imbuing the fabric with the spirit of the sea, before being rinsed in fresh water and dried in the wind. This harmonious blend of sun, water, and wind creates a wearable piece of art that not only celebrates the beauty of the ocean but also carries its essence with you.

Material: 100% Silk, hand rolled stitched seams.

Care Instructions: Hand wash in warm water. Do not use detergents as this may cause the colour to change as it remains PH sensitive.
