Handmade dyed pure silk scarf with urucum or annatto seeds. One piece, handmade, dyed with dyeing plants. The orange came from the annatto, a traditional Brazilian red seed, which the indigenous people use to paint and protect the skin.

Feminine scarf perfect for women strong, engaging and full of energy.

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.
