Double-Layered Watercolour Floral Silk Shawl – Ice Blue Ombré
This isn’t your ordinary silk scarf – it’s a double-layered silk shawl that changes everything. Two layers of 12 momme silk bonded together create a luxurious 24 momme total weight that’s warm, substantial, and beautifully opaque.
Why Double-Layered Silk Is a Game-Changer
Warmth Without Weight: Two silk layers trap air between them for natural insulation. Genuinely warm on chilly evenings, yet light enough you forget you’re wearing it.
Beautiful Opacity: No sheerness, no see-through. Rich, saturated colour that photographs beautifully and looks expensive.
Luxurious Drape: The 24 momme weight creates that perfect “expensive scarf” drape – flows elegantly, holds its shape when tied, never looks limp or cheap.
Durable & Long-Lasting: Double layers mean double durability. Edges won’t fray, fabric won’t thin. This shawl gets better with age.
What 24 Momme Actually Means For You
Most silk scarves are 8-12 momme – thin, delicate, barely warm. This double-layered construction gives you 24 momme total:
- Substantial feel: Feels luxurious in your hands – quality you can touch
- Real warmth: Actually keeps you warm on cold days (not just decorative)
- Perfect weight: Heavy enough to stay draped, light enough to layer
- No transparency: Rich, opaque colour – no awkward see-through
- Professional appearance: Looks polished and expensive, not cheap or flimsy
- Year-round versatile: Light enough for spring, warm enough for winter
This is the difference between “pretty scarf” and “investment piece you wear constantly.”
Instant Style Upgrade
Makes Every Outfit Look Intentional: That effortless “put together” look. Jeans and jumper become “casual chic.” Plain dress becomes “evening elegant.”
Autumn/Winter Essential: The double layer makes this your go-to when it’s properly cold. Wrap it twice around your neck and actually feel warm.
Travel Must-Have: Rolls compact but provides real warmth on flights. Better than an airplane blanket, prettier than a hoodie.
The Watercolour Design Works With Everything
Ice blue gradient with white florals – sophisticated, not loud:
- Your wardrobe staples: Navy, grey, black, cream, camel, denim
- Blues palette: Teal, midnight, denim – creates beautiful tonal looks
- Neutral lovers: Adds color without commitment
- Unexpected pairings: Try with burgundy, forest green, or soft pink
The watercolour effect means it’s artistic without being overwhelming. Gets compliments but doesn’t scream “look at me.”

Why This Costs More (And Why It’s Worth It)
At £145, here’s what you’re getting that cheaper scarves don’t have:
- ✓ Double-layered construction (most scarves are single layer)
- ✓ 24 momme total weight (high street scarves are 8-12mm)
- ✓ 175cm generous length (many are 140-150cm)
- ✓ 100% mulberry silk (not poly-silk blend)
- ✓ Real warmth (not just decorative)
- ✓ Professional quality from Hangzhou silk specialists
Cost per wear math: Wear it twice weekly October-March (6 months) = 48 wears per year. Over 3 years = 144 wears = £1.01 per wear. Less than a coffee, and it lasts longer.
Compare to:
- High street silk scarf: £40-60, single layer, thin, cold
- Designer silk scarf: £200-400, single layer, brand markup
- This: £145, double layer warmth, professional quality
Easy Care – Double Layer is Actually Easier
More Forgiving: Double layers are less delicate than single. Won’t snag as easily, edges stay neat.
Machine Washable: Gentle cycle in mesh bag, cool water, silk detergent. The double layer handles washing better than thin silk.
Hand Wash: Cool water, gentle squeeze, hang to dry in shade.
Drying: Air dry naturally – double layer dries faster than thick scarves because silk wicks moisture.
Storage: Hang or fold – double layer keeps its shape better than single.
This is premium quality made for real life, not precious silk that needs special treatment.
