Mexican Medallion Embroidered Oblong Scarf

$125.00 at The Metropolitan Museum of Art.

An art scarf makes a unique gift for her. This richly embroidered scarf celebrates the nature motifs on a charming coverlet made in Mexico around 1820. Formerly thought to be of Catalonian origin, the Museum's cotton-and-wool textile, embellished with sequins and metal thread, is now a part of the American Wing. Our stylish reimagining adapts the quaint patterning on the original, with lively flora and fauna decorating the ornamental borders enveloping a central medallion.
