Testimonials

Hello Barbara, I am pleased to say that the scarf arrived today, really well packaged and gently folded so there is barely a fold in it. I am delighted with it, it is so light and delicate, and I cannot tell you how many websites I looked at looking for the perfect pink that I wanted, before finding this one, just the colour I was trying to match.

My tie was printed in gorgeous shades of blue and orange on lovely heavy soft silk. Everyone commented on it. I would definitely recommend one of these as a present, or if you are looking for something a little bit different for yourself. Beautiful! Thank-you.
Mike.
