long scarf

Subtle tone-on-tone yarns in blue-grey create an appealing texture in this rayon scarf from Elena Ixtamer in Guatemala. The artisan weaves the scarf by hand on a traditional waist loom.

Exhibiting elegance, this wrap scarf is decorated with subtle stripes of ash. Guatemalan artisan Candelaria Julajuj creates this scarf, which is handwoven from cotton on a traditional loom. A striped pattern in black and turquoise decorates this scarf, which is accented at the ends with hand-knotted fringe work.

The long tradition of exquisite textiles survives to these modern days in the talented hands of artisan Wilfredo Herencia of Peru. Refined alpaca yarns are woven to create this soft scarf of floral inspiration. Grey, pink, blue and yellow hues unite in this gorgeous winter piece, whose pattern merges blooms and geometric details.
