Delicate pure silk scarf hand-dyed with annatto seeds or urucum. One piece, handmade, dyed with plants. The orange, very soft, came from urucum, a traditional Braziloian red seed, which the indigenous people use to paint and protect the skin. The print was created through Shibori, a Japanese tye-dye technique to create patterns in hand-dyed fabrics. The delicacy of silk and the energy of urucum orange surrounding her neck. Perfect feminine scarf for delicate and enveloping women.

IMPORTANT

• The colours are represented as accurately as possible but may appear slightly different in person due to variations in the canvas. Photos can make the parts look bigger or smaller. Please check the measurements before ordering.
• Due to the artisanal nature of this item, expect a slight variation in the appearance of each unique piece. The products are unique pieces handmade one by one. So, there may be imperfections in the finish or even some threads pulled on very fine fabrics.
• The size can vary by 2 cm.

CARE

The colours from plants are alive in the fabric. That is why some cares are necessary for the durability of this piece:
• Handwash with cold water and mild soap.
• Do not bleach.
• Dry in a shadowed area.
• Do not tumble dry.
• Do not dry clean.
• Do not scrub.
• Do not leave soaking.
• Be careful around acids, like lemon, vinegar, alcoholic beverage, perfume, or deodorant. Most natural dyes react to acid.
• Natural dyes may fade gently over time or in direct sunlight.
