70 Silk Scarf Garnet Jewels
Against a deep garnet background, open jewelry boxes, gold chains, pearls and cut stones are arranged in symmetry around a ruby set at the center. The border lines rings and stones: a jewelry case drawn in engraving.
The 70 x 70 is the neck format: folded in a triangle, it ties in front or to the side without falling too low, and folded as a headband it wraps twice around. It can also be worn on the head, tied under the chin or at the nape, and as a thin belt over a dress.
The Wearing Experience
- Garnet is the most flattering color among dark backgrounds: it warms the complexion where black hardens it.
- Engraved gold catches the light of the twill: in movement, the chains seem to truly shimmer.
- Folded in a triangle and tied in front, the point falls in the middle of the chest: this is the right proportion for a coat collar or blazer.
- As a headband, it wraps twice around the neck with a flat knot: the silk holds without a pin.
Expertise & Material
The Garnet Jewels scarf is printed in Italy on a natural silk twill 100% silk, the same tight weave with discreet diagonal that our 90 scarves, recognizable by its dense hand and resistance to wrinkles. The printing is done in high definition, which restores the engraving line of the design, then fixed to withstand hand washing. The edges are hand-rolled: rolled and sewn by needle, never machine-overcast.
The 70 cm is the intermediate format of silk houses: large enough for a shoulder knot in summer, short enough to stay crisp at the neck in winter. It is cut from the same twill as the 90, with the same hand-rolled edge: only the surface changes, not the material. To understand what distinguishes a twill from a silk satin, we have detailed our criteria in silk scarf, twill or satin.
Style Tips
- On a black evening dress, tied as a collar: the garnet replaces jewelry.
- With a camel coat, in a triangle on the shoulders, ruby at the back.
- Over a cream sweater and burgundy pants, as a thin headband.
This format is found throughout the collection of 70x70 silk scarves, the neck format. All formats are gathered in the Misciano silk scarves collection. To learn more: how to tie a silk scarf around the neck.
Care for Your Piece
This format is washed flat like a 90; the hand-rolled edge reshapes itself during drying, by gently pulling the edges flat. Cold water, mild soap, no prolonged soaking or wringing; dry flat away from sunlight, iron on the reverse at low temperature, dry iron. The steps are detailed in hand washing a silk scarf.
