Paradisa Silk Scarf

This stunning blue scarf is hand-woven from wild Borocera silk, a species of silk only found in Madagascar.  It's name 'paradisa' translates to 'paradise' in Madagascar, as the blue of oceans and skies will carry you away.  There is a subtle stripe that adds interest, a lighter tone and slightly darker tone of blue. 

It is 100% Madagascar silk and is handmade using traditional weaving methods that have been passed down from mother-to-daughter for generations. The women of the Lovasoa Cooperative carefully craft each piece in their small village in the central highlands of Madagascar.

• Made from Borocera wild silk.
• Completely hand-crafted. The silk yarn is hand spun with a drop spindle, hand dyed, and handwoven on a floor loom.
• Measures 12.5” x 70”

Your purchase directly helps a weaver in this cooperative support her family. It also preserves the cultural tradition of silk weaving in Madagascar.

Each piece comes with a lovely tag that tells the story of the silk and has washing instructions.

Washing instructions: Dry cleaning recommended. Steam iron as desired.

There may be slight variations in size and color due to the handcrafted process.
