Dalai Scarves and Shawls

From India to Laos, the bright colors and intricate silk patterns in our Dalai Scarves and Shawls are woven by the able hands of women artisans. Each piece has an embedded design that’s been passed down from generation to generation, thus each piece carries with it a story and a dream.

In a sense, there’s a lineage contained within each beautiful tapestry that weaves the artistic inclinations of present-day women weavers with those of their ancestors. The Dalai scarves in particular are meant to accentuate various wardrobes and styles with a certain “global” flair, a timeless, slightly indigenous, design born from a long history of aesthetics.

Aside from their uniqueness and beauty, these neck scarves help preserve an endangered craft: the art of 100% hand-crafted products. Our Dalai scarves and shawls are made from hand-farmed organic cotton and silk, then naturally-dyed with materials native to the artisan communities. By purchasing these fair trade scarves, you’re helping to keep this art form alive.

We, at GIANNA, hope you’ll enjoy browsing through our selection of fair trade scarves and shawls. As you look through the products, envision these items paired with ordinary jeans for a sophisticated-everyday look, or think of them gathered round your neck over a sweater and peeping through your jacket. Each piece helps create a timeless woman of style!
