The Asa scarves blend 100% pure Eri and Mulberry silk, handwoven by women artisans in rural India. Eco-printed with leaves and flowers native to the region, we use organic dyes from plant-based sources like lac, turmeric, indigo, and charcoal. Each stole is uniquely designed, created by collecting fresh leaves and flowers every morning and eco-printing using heat and pressure. Mulberry silk offers an exceptionally smooth texture and sheen, while Eri silk provides breathability and isothermal qualities, maintaining a constant temperature. Lightweight and high-tensile, both silk types age gracefully, becoming softer and smoother over time.
The Asa scarves belong to a limited edition collection. Designs may vary slightly from those shown in the images due to the entirely manual production process.
