Vietnam is acknowledged to produce some of the finest silk products in the world and has been producing outstanding premium quality silk for centuries. Made in Vietnam by artisans following traditional methods of hand loom manufacture it has supreme quality and authenticity. The style of this scarf is called "Lua Van" weave which means "like a cloud", reflecting the elegant character of this fine silk scarf. The raw silk is skilfully spun to form a closely woven fabric that retains the charming irregularities of its natural texture and at the same time produces a glossy sheen to the finished scarf. The character of the scarf is defined by the combination of the uneven texture of the raw silk, the close weave and the traditional vibrant colours of Vietnam, which are hand tinted. Silk is one of the strongest fibres available and this scarf will still look as good or even better in the years to come, no matter how much wear it has. This stunning beautiful unisex scarf measures 40 cm x 175cm. Your scarf is supplied with FREE gift-wrap in attractive ivory tissue and presentational frosted bag along with a FREE message service. Your scarf can be hand or machine washed at 40 degrees. Dry in fresh air. Use a medium hot iron or plait the fabric while damp to produce a crinkle effect when dry.
