Small silk square 50 Pomegranates of gold
Red pomegranates, some open to reveal their seeds, run along branches with sage green foliage, in a botanical drawing. The border features fruits and leaves in a frieze, on a cream background that lets the red vibrate.
The 50 x 50 is the format for quick gestures: folded as a four-finger headband, it ties around the neck as a short scarf, on the head as a bandana, around the wrist or on a bag handle. It never creates bulk, making it easier to wear than a 90 under a coat collar.
The Wearing Experience
- Pomegranate red and sage green create an autumn harmony that revives beige and grey coats.
- The all-over botanical pattern folds without concern for centering: each section shows fruits.
- Folded as a headband, it stays in your hair all day without slipping, as the silk catches on itself at the knot.
- Around the neck, it slides under a shirt or sweater collar without bulk: it's the format you keep under your coat.
Craftsmanship & Material
The Pomegranates of gold square is printed in Italy on a natural silk twill 100% silk, the same tight diagonal weave as our 90 squares, recognizable by its dense hand and resistance to creasing. The printing is done in high definition, which restores the engraved line of the design, then fixed to withstand hand washing. The edges are hand-rolled: rolled and sewn with a needle, never machine-finished.
At 50 cm, the square is cut from the same twill as the 90: same density, same hand. The difference is in proportion: the border takes up a larger part of the design, and this is what shows once the square is folded as a headband. The designs for this size are therefore composed with the border first. To understand what distinguishes a twill from a silk satin, we have detailed our criteria in silk square, twill or satin.
Style Tips
- With a sage green sweater and a cognac leather skirt, tied at the neck in a point.
- On a grey coat, as a headband in your hair.
- Around a leather basket handle, in summer, to wear the fruit as an accessory.

Care for Your Piece
The small format washes flat in a few minutes and dries quickly; it's the square you maintain most often, because it touches your hair and skin. Cold water, gentle 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 washing a silk square by hand.
