Description
Large lightweight shawl featuring African fruit bats in a baobab tree at night, on a deep purple blue background.
Made from superfine Italian wool with finely fringed edges. The quality of this Italian wool is exceptionally soft and a joy to touch. Ideal for transitional temperatures as a wrap or shawl.
The print is taken from original ink paintings by Arlette Ess. This scene depicts the fruit bats in one of their natural habitats, the baobab tree. They feed on its nectar, fruit and flowers and are the main pollinators of this iconic African tree.
