Thai Scarf with Slight Pattern

Sage on top, terracotta below, with hollow circles floating across the join

This scarf is from Thailand. It is silk. Hand-woven Thai silk scarves are generally made on small looms, with silk reeled from cocoons and dyed in saturated color. Gray-green sage covers the upper part of the folded cloth, giving way to a burnt orange band below. Rows of small pale ringed circles sit along the join and near the bottom. Thin, scraggly fringe hangs below.

Earth tones in a gentle argument, politely settled.
