OCHRE, COTTON BLEND SCARF - SAVANE

This scarf’s design was inspired by an African savannah scene, with animal skins and foliage blending together while seemingly in a game of hide-and-go-seek with each other. Our very fashionable khaki and ochre color scheme was chosen to compliment and illuminate the design.

This classic design and color scheme can be easily paired with the majority of your outfits. Perfect for everyday wear with a coat, a jacket, or a leather coat, for example, or with chocolate, orange, red, and bronze colored clothes. Adds a touch of elegance and modernity to your over all look.

To swash a scarf made of all natural materials, we advise washing by hand with a detergent made specifically for low temperature washing. Do not let it soak for too long. The scarf can be dried in a cotton towel before putting on a hanger. Iron on high heat with vapor to preserve the volume of the natural fibers. While putting it in the dryer is absolutely out of the question, you can take it in for dry cleaning instead.

The weaving method used to make this scarf, known as the Jacquard method, involves the interweaving of a silk warp thread with a cashmere, cotton, and silk weft thread, using a specific pattern. In order to do this, the Fabrique d’Écharpe weaving atelier uses Jacquard looms. The Jacquard loom was developed by Lyon-native Joseph Marie Jacquard in 1801, who created the first mechanical system that could be programmed with perforated cards to create a design by interweaving different colored threads. Thanks to the artisan weaving knowledge transmitted to us from generation to generation since 1880, today we have electronically controlled looms that allow for the scarf to be produced with impeccable quality all while respecting the purest methods of traditional Lyon Jacquard weaving.
