Jewelled Renaissance Silk Habotai Scarf

LAST CHANCE

A final opportunity for you to claim a piece of style history with an end-of-line, or one-off sample before they vanish forever.

DESIGNER'S NOTES

A red Fox & Chave habotai silk scarf drawing inspiration from high Renaissance goldsmithery and decorative arts.

It employs a disciplined geometric grid framed by an ornate, detailed border with a central ground composed of alternating rows of circular, jewel-like medallions containing stylised sunbursts and embossed metalwork motifs, separated by vertical bands of classical all'antica foliage.

Rendered in a rich, warm palette of terracotta, amber, and gold, the design beautifully mimics the luminous, translucent quality of historical materials like chased gold, enamel, and carnelian.

STYLING

A Fox & Chave habotai silk scarf can be worn with the classic knot style or a pussycat bow. You can even create a shawl effect by knotting two scarves together behind your neck and allowing them to drape over your shoulders.
