Silk Scarves

Nicole’s scarves are soft, luxurious and quite individual. Her designs can be produced onto three different types of silk.

* Silk chiffon – a delicate, floaty material with a fine open weave (180cm x 45cm).
* Crepe de chine – a fine, semi-transparent material with a very soft and drapey texture (150cm x 40cm).
* Habotai – a lustrous, heavier silk which allows the dyes to create a more solid colour (150cm x 40cm).

Each scarf is unique due to the unpredictability of the reaction between silk and dye. The images give some idea as to the way the designs and colours behave on the different silks. All scarves can be personalised or designed specifically for special occasions.
