ABOUT THE WEAVE: Wrap yourself in a Himalayan mountain meadow. An elegant weave of gold, beige, and walnut brown works its magic to create this gorgeous scarf. The Mountain Meadow Scarf is an investment piece that will carry you through these strange times and well into the brighter days ahead. Luxurious and thick, this is not the paper-thin pashmina ubiquitous in the United States and often coming from questionable, less than ethical manufacturers. The pashmina comes with a reusable, hand-sewn fabric pouch so you can easily tuck it in your suitcase or store it in your closet. Gift wrapping available upon request. This item ships priority mail, free of charge.
