Nasturtiums Habotai Silk Scarf

DESIGNER'S NOTES A bright Fox & Chave silk habotai scarf with a bold red floral design of Nasturtium blooms. More specifically this pattern features a plant of the genus Tropaeolum. Nasturtium literally means "nose-twister" or "nose-tweaker". In Western symbolism, nasturtiums; bright, trailing flowers with vivid orange, red, or yellow blooms, are often associated with patriotism, conquest, and victory in battle, owing to their name's Latin root tropaeum (trophy). In the Victorian language of flowers, they could signify loyalty and the spirited pursuit of a goal, sometimes carrying undertones of courage in the face of challenge. Their warm, jewel like colours and climbing habit also link them to themes of vitality, resourcefulness, and the ability to thrive in varied conditions, making them a popular decorative motif in both fine and applied arts. COLOURS STYLING A Fox & Chave habotai silk scarf can be worn with the classic knot style or a pussycat bow. You can even create a shawl effect by knotting two scarves together behind your neck and allowing them to drape over your shoulders.
