Burnout Velvet Scarf, order Hand dyed Red Silk Chiffon Backing with Hand Painted Pattern of Rain Drops on Branches Gift for Mom or Grandma

• One-of-a-kind:
The dramatic contrast between sheer chiffon with a shimmering plush velvet pile is called devorè velvet. The original pattern of a winter scene, with rain drops clinging to order bare branches was made from solid velvet. A paste that removes some rayon pile and leaves the silk backing intact (devorè means to devour) was applied with a stencil. It is then hand-painted with dyes in a watercolor style that makes it true wearable art.

• Washable:
This scarf was washed as part of the dying and hand-painting process. A cold, gentle machine cycle followed by a hot dryer cycle will add to its softness. It may be ironed on the reverse side.

•Measures 14"x60" (36cmx 157 cm):
The sewn hems are rolled-edges.

•The fabric is 100% silk backing with %100 rayon pile.
All natural materials make it luxuriously soft.
