shimmer shawl

Myriad bouquets in black and turquoise blossom with feminine beauty in an ivory-hued shawl. From Isha Jain, the images are block-printed by hand on a shawl that is woven of cotton and features the shimmering luster of silk.

Created with the batik method, geometric shapes in yellow and orange grace each end of an elegant shawl. Chomsuda Samana works with shimmering silk in espresso brown to craft a lightweight wrap of perpetual style. The central portion is solid brown.

Shimmering shades of blue and cream cover this elegant scarf. Yuni Kristina recreates the parang raja. One of many traditional batik motifs, it symbolizes the ancient Javanese kingdom in general. She stamps the blue patterns in pure silk and adds the red blossoms with the batik motif.
