Description
The sister painting of the multicoloured ‘Koi II’. This composition features Kohaku Koi and one black koi.
The artwork combines vivid reds with highlights of vibrant orange against off white and warm grey, creating a sophisticated palette which enhances understated elegance. The reds and neutral hues complement formal as well as more casual wardrobes.
Featured on the painting are nine koi, eight red and white ‘Kohaku’ Koi, and single black. This combination is considered to be particularly auspicious, as it contains the lucky number eight combined with one black Koi which is believed to absorb bad luck.
The intense colours of the print go through the beautiful twill fabric are almost identical on both sides of the scarf. The fringed edges add an informal elegance.
The print is based on a monochrome indian ink drawing. You can read more about the inspiration and see work in progress images here.
The scarf is printed in Italy onto 100% Italian silk twill, a classic scarf fabric with a subtle sheen. It has a satisfying weight and drapes beautifully, and the artwork shows exceptionally well on this fabric. Silk is a naturally sturdy material, and in this quality a scarf will last.
