Handpainted watercolor on silk by Kristine Baker. Exclusive design based on The Gamble House living room rug. Two sizes available.
12x60" Without Fringe $70.00
14x72" With Fringe $85.00
Kristine worked patiently with us to create the perfect design for this beautiful silk scarf. The design is drawn onto each scarf, then painted with the 10 colors, dried, steamed, cooled down, and then finally hand washed and hung to dry. The Arts and Crafts Movement is all about individual art and doing hand work, so we love that this scarf really embodies that process.
Price: $70.00
