Ethnic pattern scarf in green shades

One scarf with two faces, depending on the fold

Fold it in half, loop it through itself, and only the palmette half shows above the collar. Leave it open across the shoulders and the green and gold check takes over, with the tassels swinging clear of the body. Wear it low over a shirt and both halves show along the length. The cloth is light enough to sit under a jacket collar without bulk, which is why it works from spring right through to autumn. It sits in the same family as the rest of our printed and plain scarves.

Ethnic green scarf with tassels in 90 x 180 cm: the print up close

The first half keeps to one motif: a deep green palmette, outlined in a darker line so the shape reads clearly against the white. The second half drops the repeat and builds a grid instead: white rosettes sitting inside bright green squares, alternating with gold crosses on a softer green. Between them, a narrow selvedge of gold stripes and small green and yellow diamonds marks the change. The shift is deliberate, and the eye travels from one end of the cloth to the other.

Pairing the two greens

The deep green sits easily with navy, camel and charcoal, so it lifts a plain winter coat without fighting it. The brighter green does the opposite job: it wakes up cream knitwear, raw denim and anything stone coloured. Gold tones run through both halves, which means no extra jewellery is needed once it is on. When the weather turns properly cold, the thicker winter shapes, from snoods to reversible squares, take over.
