90 Silk Scarf Four Seasons
Four quarters, cherry blossoms, summer wheat, autumn foliage, winter branches, revolve around a central medallion where the sun and moon share the sky. The border of golden scrollwork unites the four seasons in a single garden.
The 90 x 90 is the iconic format of the silk scarf: as a triangle on the shoulders, folded as a neck band, as a turban, as a belt or tied to a bag. Its surface allows for all knotting styles, from the most voluminous to the most fitted, and it is the one that displays the entire design once draped.
Wearing Experience
- Each corner of the scarf is a season: the visible panel changes color depending on the fold, from the pink of spring to the gold of autumn.
- The sun-moon medallion is worn at the back or center of the chest.
- As a triangle on the shoulders, the center of the design falls in the middle of the back and the borders frame the neckline.
- Folded as a narrow band, it makes three loops around the neck or a complete turban.
Craftsmanship & Material
The Four Seasons scarf is printed in Italy on a natural silk twill 100% silk, the same tight weave with a discreet diagonal that characterizes 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 serged by machine.
The 90 cm format is the historic format of the house: it is that of our twenty-six scarves printed in Italy, and the one on which the silk twill has the best drape, neither too heavy for the neck nor too light for the shoulders. To understand what distinguishes a twill from a silk satin, we have detailed our criteria in silk scarf, twill or satin.

Care for Your Piece
A 90 is washed flat in a basin, without wringing it; it dries flat on a towel, edges pulled taut, and is barely ironed. Cold water, mild soap, no prolonged soaking or wringing; air dry flat away from the sun, iron on the reverse at low temperature, dry iron. The steps are detailed in hand washing a silk scarf.
