Its unique features keeps your skin temperature without getting hot nor cold. The silk is mild for sensitive skin and doesn't irritate it because it doesn't absorb the moisture. Not only do the silk fabrics look good but they feel good as well.

Before coming to our wardrobes, silk women’s scarves aremanufactured by an artist or in a specialized garment factory. There are two parts in the process of scarf making. One is picking the material, other is painting. In factories this process is automatic, where premade templates are printed on the silk textiles.

Meanwhile, manual work needs more thoroughness, and the end result is of a higher quality as a rule. Scarves handmade by artists tend to be higher priced than those made in factories. Manual manufacturing process begins by picking a piece of silk fabric. The process of painting is different per artist. Some artists use their stencils to paint the patterns. Other artist paint directly on the silk like a painting, sometimes using strings and other tools to form patterns.

Finishing a scarf involves drying it and letting the paint to soak in which reveals the real colors.

Due to the nature of silk, paint spreads equally on both sides of the textile and retains equal color richness on both sides. That's one of many reasons why silk scarves are widely appreciated and always enrich anyone's wardrobe for any season.

The modern process of silk clothing manufacturing is low cost and silk is available to anyone. Silk, that once was only for the eyes of ancient emperors is now available to anyone. That’s what makes silk women’s scarves such a trend.
