Where Creativity Doesn’t Cost the Earth
Brisas Fashion Kikagaku Moyō Shawls feature striking circular or diamond patterns embroidered on a bed of transparent organza silk. Each geometric pattern is first handcrafted by a skilled artisan who twists mulberry silk threads together to create not only the shawl but also the yarn itself.
The impressive Carnaval Shawl, measuring 60 cm x 180 cm, features handmade silk threads spun by hand into yarn. The silk yarn is then shaped by a skilled artisan into a diamond pattern and hand kantha-stitched to set the design onto a bed of Mulberry silk.. Once the artist is satisfied, the sides are machine-stitched, and the ends are twisted by hand to create this exotic violet, blue, and black piece of living art.
Brisas Fashion Monokuro (Black & White) Shawl, measuring 60 cm x 180 cm, is handmade by first twisting mulberry silk threads to create the yarn. The silk yarn under the hands of a talented craftsperson is carefully drawn into diamond-shaped patterns, after the artisan is satisfied the sides are machine-stitched, and the ends are twisted by hand to create delicate floating whiffs of seemingly black smoke.
The Chiaroscuro Sphere Shawl, measuring 60 cm x 180 cm, was inspired by the light and dark reflections upon a ball. Crafted entirely by hand by a highly skilled artisan, it begins with twisting mulberry silk threads to make the yarn. The silk yarn is then formed into circular patterns and hand-set upon a bed of sheer organza silk. Afterward, another layer of transparent silk is kantha- and machine-stitched into place, making this sophisticated accessory of notable distinction.
The craft behind each of these delicate pieces creates extremely soft, lush and comfortable neck and shoulder wear and the natural fibre of silk against the skin makes them perfect companions for special occasions.
