Soft and luxurious, mulberry silk is refined and durable. Playford silk scarves are lightweight, breathable and temperature regulating, making them cozy and cool.
This design is inspired by the beauty of the flowers, birds and butterflies of British Columbia. Many of the elements were drawn on-site in míqən (Beacon Hill Park), on the traditional territory of the lək̓ʷəŋən-speaking Peoples. Explore this vibrant garden full of camas (qʷɫəɫ), Anna's Hummingbird, fawn lily, swallowtail butterfly, pacific dogwood, Steller's Jay, cherry blossom, and Nootka rose (ḴÁLḴEIȽĆ). Available in 25"x25" (66cm) in 100% silk twill.
Playford silk scarves come ready to gift and store in a solid, velvety, pink box and navy ribbon with a touch of gold. Each scarf design is inspired by a story which is included inside the box.
The beginning stage of this design started with a hands-on approach and real flowers selected by shape, colour, scent, and touch. The design process continued as an immersive experience, seeing how each flower would connect and sit together on a flat surface. Imagining what would be hidden inside a garden of curiosity, led Jennifer to add parrots, butterflies, beetles, keys, insects and other birds to her design. Available in black and teal 100% silk twill, 25"x25" (66cm), 35"x35" (90cm) and a Twilly (5cmx90cm).
Have fun with these long narrow scarves that add an element of colour and play to your style...worn as a neck tie, bracelet, headband, around a ponytail, or as a handbag accessory.
Bold and bright, Jennifer's colourful and whimsical illustrations embody joy. Her hand-drawn silk scarves bring a pop of colour to your wardrobe, creating space for self-expression and play. Each design is inspired by beauty, meaning, a story or a place.
