Silk and Cotton Scarves

Stunning handwoven, hand batiked and natural dyed scarves.

Scarves make a wonderful gift for any occasion and all seasons. We have curated a selection of unique scarves and shawls from across Asia, including beautiful rayon fibre indigo scarves sourced directly from the weavers themselves in North Eastern Thailand; hand spun 100% thai silk scarves in a rainbow of colours; fine silk scarves made from stamped (tjap) batik from Java; and naturally plant dyed hand woven cotton scarves from Chiang Mai in Northern Thailand.

We also stock a range of plain scarves for tie dye and batik, which can be found here.

How do you wash a thai silk scarf?

Please handwash your silk items in cool water, using a delicate detergent. Soak, then agitate gently before rinsing in cold water. Press between towels to absorb the excess water, then lay flat to air dry.

Why are authentic thai silk scarves rough?

There are different varieties of silk cocoons: white silk cocoons, and yellow silk cocoons. The white silk cocoons are smoother in texture, and are found predominantly in Japan or China, whereas the yellow silk cocoons are native to Thailand and rougher in texture. This gives the silk a wonderful wabi-sabi, “slubby” texture.

Are lightweight scarves suitable for winter?

Our fine silk scarves really are suitable for all seasons. Keep your neck warm in the winter, tie your hair back with them in the summer, or even wet your scarf to keep cool during a heatwave.
