This is a unique design from my limited collection of Nature-inspired silk scarves and is hand-printed using the Cyanotye process and 100% hand-rolled Chinese silk.

In the 1800s, botanist Anna Atkins was the first person to use photographs to illustrate a book by using Cyanotypes and this is the same process that I use today! Each of my Nature silk scarves is a...

This is a unique design from my limited collection of Nature-inspired Cyanotype prints and is a hand-printed Prussian Blue Cyanotype silk scarf. Perfect as a special gift, the scarf is soft, floaty and very elegant. Size-wise, @28cm x 114cm, it will drape elegantly around your neck without being too long, like a lot of scarves these days. You could even wear it as a hair accessory. Made to order, I am happy to take commissions for a Cyanotype silk scarf if you would like more of them, or ones with...
