The colour of early light, sharp and uncompromising.
Some techniques survive because nothing has improved on them. The diamond weave you can see in this scarf — visible to the naked eye, geometric and precise — was perfected by artisans during the Mughal era, when spinning cashmere to this fineness was considered one of the highest crafts. It still is.
At 100 × 100cm it is a Parisian neck scarf in cashmere. Knotted loosely at the collar. Tucked into a coat. Folded into a breast pocket as a gesture of colour. The format that Frenchwomen have understood for decades — reimagined in a fibre that silk cannot match for softness and that most cashmere cannot match for fineness.
The weave catches light differently at every angle. Hold it up and you can see through it.
