Suzani Red Silk Habotai Scarf

DESIGNER'S NOTES This Fox & Chave silk habotai scarf features a red floral pattern in a Suzani style. Suzani is a traditional Central Asian embroidered textile, originating from regions including Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Kazakhstan, primarily created as decorative hangings, bed covers, or dowry gifts. Characterised by bold, stylised floral and geometric motifs such as sunflowers, tulips, pomegranates, and vines, suzanis are made using chain, satin, and couching stitches on cotton or silk fabric. The vibrant colours and intricate patterns carry symbolic meanings tied to fertility, protection, and prosperity. Traditionally handcrafted by women, suzanis reflect communal identity and artistry passed through generations. In contemporary design, suzani motifs inspire fashion, interiors, and graphic arts worldwide, celebrated for their rich heritage, craftsmanship, and dynamic, ornamental beauty.   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.
