Product Description

Painstakingly Crafted One Brushstroke At A Time

Invisible World Hand Painted Scarves never see the inside of a factory.  They are created one a time in a small workshop using brushes and silk dyes.

Experience The Magic of Hand-Made, One-of-a-kind Art

Our scarves are made by a family of silk painters in Suzhou, China.  Famous for silk since the Han Dynasty 2000 years ago.
Every scarf begins as a piece of translucent white Habutai silk.
The outlines are hand-applied in a waterproof resist, and then the silk dyes are painted one brushstroke at a time.
The scarf is steamed to set the dyes, then washed in water.
Finally, the edges are rolled and stitched by hand.
THE PERFECT GIFT FOR BIRTHDAYS, MOTHER’S DAY OR ANY OCCASION.

Invisible World Hand Painted Silk Scarves: A Precious Gift of Lasting Value

CARING FOR YOUR SILK SCARF

Invisible World Dyes are completely fast and will not run or discolor.  It will last you decades if properly cared for.
 

Wash in cold water with a mild shampoo or no detergent at all.
At first washing, the water may discolor slightly, but the scarf will remain unchanged.
Do not rub the scarf hard when it is wet.
Hang the scarf in the shade to dry, then iron with steam.
When in doubt, dry-clean.

ANCIENT SILK’S ENDURING VALUE

Sericulture in China dates back more than 6000 years.
Silk is the strongest natural fiber:it is stronger than steel by weight.
Silk cocoons are a single filament up to 3000 feet long.  It takes six or seven of these filaments to make a single silk thread.
Always a precious gift: Silk was traded between China and the Roman Empire along the Silk Road. It was more expensive than gold.
