| .. 1920s Peacock Shawl from Japan | |||
|
..This is a stunning example of a 30s, made for export silk shawl. Its has a slight art nouveau feel with the peacocks and peonies. The colors are extraordinary with the rich imperial red, the stunning blues, greens and pinks. The print is nothing less than magical. The detail is very fine and the way the peacock tail spreads out over the shoulders is tremendous. ..It is, of course, all silk, with delicious, hand knotted silk fringe.
