Transition To Fall

The theme of this silk scarf design is symbiosis.  In the Namib desert, the Palmato Gecko and Aloe Gariepensis depend upon each other for survival.  The aloe plant provides a safe haven and water for the gecko while the gecko protects the plant from pests.  Both have adapted in order to thrive in the harsh conditions in the oldest desert in the world.

We love this chic tote that seamlessly goes from day to night, carrying everything we need. Perfect for everyday life, it features magnetic closure, big pockets, a hard bottom suede insert, and custom fired brass feet.

Made in Savannah, Georgia.

Inspired by an open safari car ride through thick Acacia thorns, we created a hardy blanket that is heirloom quality. It is great around a fire pit, warm on a gusty cold winter day in the field, or just a great picnic blanket.

Made of a durable outdoor material that is used in Africa as tent material, it is water, mold and mildew resistent. Finest quality wool and lux upholstery leather borders this 5 foot x 5 foot blanket.

Hand woven and naturally dyed from wild harvested kalahari silk, handmade in Namibia by female artisans.

Wild Kalahari silk is an environmentally sustainable product from Namibia.  The silk cocoons are hand-picked on small family farms and community lands.  Female artisans wash and boil them, and spin the silk into yarn.  The women then dye the silk using natural products including beets, onions, turmeric, pressed flowers and berries which yield the most beautiful colors.

Each scarf is hand woven and hand dyed, and has it’s own unique variations.
