Small silk scarf 50 Crescent Moons
A shower of navy and silver crescent moons, densely scattered on a cream background, with tiny stars between them. The navy frame, very thin, lets the pattern breathe: it's a night scarf, without an ounce of heaviness.
The 50 x 50 is the format for quick gestures: folded into a four-finger headband, it ties around the neck as a short tie, on the head as a bandana, around the wrist or to a bag handle. It never creates bulk, which makes it easier to wear than a 90 under a coat collar.
The Wearing Experience
- The dense pattern reads like a blouse print: tied at the neck, it looks like a silk collar.
- Navy on cream is the most versatile duo in the range: office, weekend, evening.
- Folded as a headband, it stays in place all day without slipping, the silk clinging to itself at the knot.
- At the neck, it slips under a shirt or sweater collar without bulk: it's the format you keep under your coat.
Craftsmanship & Material
The Crescent Moons scarf is printed in Italy on a natural silk twill 100% silk, the same tight diagonal weave as our 90 scarves, recognizable by its dense hand and resistance to creasing. The print 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-overstitched.
At 50 cm, the scarf is cut from the same twill as the 90s: same density, same hand. The difference is in proportion: the border takes up a larger part of the design, and it's what shows once the scarf is folded into a headband. Designs of this size are therefore composed border first. To understand what distinguishes a twill from a silk satin, we've detailed our criteria in silk scarf, twill or satin.
Styling Tips
- With a navy blazer and white t-shirt, tied as a short tie.
- Over a cream dress, as a bandana in your hair, ends knotted on top.
- At the wrist, over a watch, for a silver accent.

Care for Your Piece
The small format washes flat in a few minutes and dries quickly; it's the scarf you maintain most often, because it touches your hair and skin. Cold water, mild soap, no prolonged soaking or wringing; flat drying away from sunlight, ironing on the reverse at low temperature, dry iron. The steps are detailed in hand washing a silk scarf.
