Raven versus Bluebird

..The great circle of life, the battle of evermore, Bluebird versus Raven -- who's gonna win?
This scarf, as you see, has got a subtle philosophical background behind it.
It's elegant, extremely feminine and wavy, made of superfine Australian merino wool, one side of it is covered all over with black tussah silk threads. It is thin and easy to drape, yet extremely warm. Combines gorgeous textures of soft wool and marvellous smooth silk, highlited by this deep, mysterious blue.

Approximate measurements: 106x25 cm --> 41,7"x9,8".

Last year's leaves shawl, shiny tussah silk and lace

This is an absolutely magnificent handmade wrap shawl (or a large scarf)  in delicate rust ginger, chestnut and oatmeal gray, made of Brithish Bluefaced Leicester breed wool, decorated all over with thick layers of tussah silk threads on both sides. It has a smooth shiny texture, is extremely thin and lightweight, easy to drape. The shawl is double sided so it can be worn in different ways, one side is in fine rust ginger color, another's in oatmeal gray; it also has a fringe of delicate chestnut color lace.
The lace was felted together with the wool, so this shawl is totally seamless.
Extremely warm, fine and elegant at the same time. Unique and one of a kind.

Approximate measurements: 155x35 cm --> 61"x13,7".
