Description

An art scarf inspired by The Met collection.

Presented in a lightweight wool blend and finished with hand-rolled edges, this eye-catching scarf celebrates the detailing on a magnificent 16th-century Kashan carpet in The Met's Islamic art collection. Named after an Iranian city where silk carpets have long been produced, Kashan carpets with such a fine, entirely silk construction are rare and intricate creations; only about 20 are known to survive, and four are in the Museum's holdings. This particular example belongs to a small group of silk weavings with an exceptionally high knot density. Rows upon rows of small, hand-tied knots reveal spectacular patterns such as those reproduced here.
