Hand-Painted Square Silk Scarf: "Cheers for Wine" - Wine Montage with Cheers 2024 in Different Languages on Hand-Dyed Black Silk
ATTENTION, WINE LOVERS! This fun silk scarf is your ultimate wine party conversation piece!
This is a hand-painted silk scarf created by artist and sommelier Gilat Ben-Dor. It is made of 100% habotai silk, measuring approximately 21.5x21.5” square, and features a montage of various wine glasses (including bubbly!), along with "Cheers" expressions in various languages. The black background has been dyed by hand (used to be white silk!), and the wine glasses, diagonal grape clusters and words have all been drawn freehand by Gilat, and then painted with custom-mixed dyes using the traditional Serti technique.
Through an intricate, 15-step process, Gilat uses only non-toxic dyes and materials to create unique works of silk art. Every piece is signed by the artist ("Gilat Ben-Dor").

**PLEASE NOTE: This item is made to order. While Gilat will re-create the general color and design of your piece, no two pieces will be exactly the same. Enjoy the unique character of your individual item. Artistic variance is considered a good thing when purchasing pieces made by an artist's hand!
PACKAGING: Each of your original Gilat Silk Art creations (size permitting) will arrive delicately folded into an elegant, fabric "envelope" pouch that adds to the beauty of your piece - and makes a perfect gift presentation, too! (NOTE: Fabric pouch colors may vary). Information about the artist and GilatSilkArt will also be enclosed.
SILK CARE: Silk is a durable, natural fabric but also requires quick but delicate care when cleaning: Gilat recommends washing your silk piece BY HAND in cool to lukewarm water & a little liquid soap, then rinsing, and air-drying FLAT (on a towel), away from direct sun or heat.
IRONING: Use the silk setting on your iron, iron inside-out and keep the iron moving every 3-4 seconds from each spot, or your best judgment. GilatSilkArt is not responsible for silk damage resulting from user care, ironing or 3rd party cleaning/care (i.e., dry cleaners).
