Not the bright green of statement-making, but the deep, considered green of a forest interior — layered, complex, and entirely at ease with itself. Forest green in silk has a quality that no other fabric can quite replicate: a depth that seems to come from within the weave rather than the surface.

Hand-dyed by artisans in Nha Xa, a village in northern Vietnam where the craft of silk dyeing has been passed down through generations for over 800 years. Each scarf is dyed by hand — colour immersed, set, and finished with care — and the particular depth of this green is the result of that patience.

Woven from 100% pure mulberry habotai silk: featherlight, naturally luminous, and with a drape that gives solid colours an elegance that heavier fabrics cannot achieve.
