The design is transferred onto silk and hand-painted with custom-mixed dyes. Each colour is layered slowly using specialized pigments that react uniquely with the fabric. The process takes hours, sometimes days, allowing the dyes to fully merge with the silk.
Inside the Studio
THE BASE DRAWING
Each scarf begins with a hand-drawn sketch, scaled precisely to the frame. Lines define the structure and rhythm that guide the composition.
PAINTING THE ARTWORK
SETTING THE DYES
The finished piece is wrapped and steamed for several hours. This step fixes the pigments deep into the fibers. It is then washed in a gentle detergent to remove any excess dye, leaving a clean and permanent surface.
THE LAST FINISHES
Once dry, the scarf is pressed, its hem hand-stitched, and the final piece inspected in natural light. Each one bears subtle traces of the hand, making no two alike.
