Thai Silk Scarf

A skinny strip in brown with a lighter fade, folded to the width of a ruler

This scarf is from Thailand, and is contemporary. It is silk. Silk takes dye deeply, which gives hand-woven scarves their saturated, slightly iridescent tones. Folded lengthwise into a narrow column, the cloth is a deep mocha brown at the edges lightening to a pale tan near the middle. Fine horizontal banding crosses it. A tuft of loose threads sticks out at the top. It is 64 by 15 inches overall.

Slim, soft-spoken, and quietly well dressed.
