Inside the collection

Silk scarf gifts for art lovers

An artwork changes when it can be folded, tied and taken out into the day. The wearer decides which part is seen, and how the colour sits beside everything else.

Thackray brings original writing and illustration to silk. Explore these designs for someone who enjoys looking closely, then follow the story behind the work.

At Christmas, that same idea sits inside our guide to British luxury Christmas gifts and the Christmas scarf edit.

Before you choose

Which scarf size should I choose?

The square scarves measure 90 × 90 cm; the narrow silk twilly measures 88 × 6 cm. A square offers more ways to fold and drape, while the twilly makes a slender tie or an accent for a bag. See our scarf size guide and check the individual product details.

What does an edition of five mean?

There are five pieces of each design. The edition describes the total number, rather than the number currently available. Each product page carries the story, material, dimensions and edition details.

How is my scarf presented, and when will it arrive?

Your scarf comes in the Thackray lime-green box. Delivery is one month from ordering. If you are choosing for a particular date, write to the house before ordering and read the delivery terms.
