This is the larger square in our Big 5 silk scarf range, printed on 100% Mulberry silk satin and finished with a hand rolled hem. The extra size gives you more fabric to work with. You can fold it into a triangle over the shoulders, tie it as a headscarf or knot it loosely at the neck, and it is large enough to frame as a piece of art.
The Big 5 print draws on South Africa’s best known wildlife. It is digitally printed in 13 colourways, from Gold on Teal to Black on White. The scarf is designed in Cape Town and arrives in our signature For The Love Of Silk packaging.
Prefer something smaller? The same print comes in 65 x 65 cm.

How to Care for Your Silk
Your silk has been crafted with care, and it responds best when treated with the same gentleness you give to yourself.
Just like hair and skin, silk is made of natural proteins, fibroin and sericin, which is why it thrives when handled softly and washed with mild products.
Hand wash in cool water with a pH-neutral detergent or gentle shampoo, letting the fabric move freely through the water without scrubbing, wringing, or prolonged soaking. Rinse thoroughly, then press out excess water gently and lay flat on a clean towel before air drying in the shade, away from direct sunlight or heat. If needed, iron on the reverse side while slightly damp, on low heat, using a protective cloth.
Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, and prolonged sunlight; for structured or detailed items, professional dry cleaning is recommended.
With the right care, your silk will keep its natural softness, lustre, and strength for many years.
