Limited edition 100% Italian silk scarf. Each scarf starts out as a blank piece of silk. Intuitively I layer the silk with soy wax (used as a resist) and silk dyes to create a one of kind textile. The piece is then digitized and printed in partnership with skilled artisans in Como, Italy.

The Lake Como district, just north of Milan on the border with Switzerland is where 85% of Italian silk and 70% of Europe’s silk is made. Como used to produce the silk worms and cocoons, but the two world wars destroyed the industry and silk cocoons are now imported from China. However, in order to honestly add the "Made in Italy" label every aspect of turning the cocoon into a beautiful silk scarf is done and made in Italy. Designing, weaving, dying, printing, sewing, packaging and all the other steps in-between.
