This pretty scarf was made in the 1940's and is labelled Julius Garfinckel & Co Washington.
Made from fabulously soft pure silk it has a blue border which surrounds an intricate design worked in pink, yellow, black and pale blue. Although a little as is due to age, it would originally have been a high quality piece with hand rolled edges.
The perfect finishing touch to your outfit, but would also make a great headscarf.
Please note the colour is truest in the first photograph with the scarf on a mannequin.

Condition
Fair with the following points to note;
- some faint marks on close inspection

- when held up to the light there are a few small areas of thinning on the border
The majority of these small issues can be covered if the scarf is folded in a particular way.
