When we stumbled across a hand-drawn and coloured “puzzle purse” love letter that was over 200 years old, we were astonished by its romantic beauty. Made of paper, painstakingly decorated, and containing heartfelt declarations of love, it was carefully folded in to a pinwheel and had somehow managed to survive the last two centuries almost completely intact. Using all parts of the love letter, we carefully designed the captivating and pretty patchwork pattern for this scarf, then trimmed it with pieces of the original poetry reconstructed from the author’s charming handwritten script. It reads:
My heart is true to none but you
My heart I hope you will pursue
The roses and the lilies twine
Since you became my Valentine
Round is my ring and has no end
So is my love unto my friend
After so many requests from our wonderful customers, we're thrilled to introduce scarves to our lineup! We've modelled the size and weight after our favourite vintage French scarves to create chic, easy to wear designs for every day use. Wear them wrapped once around the neck, tucked in to a jacket, or tied in the hair. Crafted from soft viscose, the fabric is a lighter, airier weight than our kimonos, with the same beautifully soft feel.
Pure bamboo / wood viscose. Handwash, hang to dry.
68cm x 155cm.
