Falguni Priet is a Missouri fiber artist who is originally from India. She has managed to successfully blend East and West artistic sensibilities to create unique and stunning hand-painted and Shibori scarves beautifully rendered in 100% silk. The Shibori scarves on these pages are of the Japanese Arashi kind. The silk is first dyed or painted by hand. The designs are developed by wrapping the fabric around a pole, securing it and using precise angled forces to generate intricate patterns. A series of complicated overdye and underdye methods are used, resulting in luminous, translucent pieces of wearable art. Falguni's scarves will go a long way toward dressing up any outfit and will make an excellent gift for any occasion. We are showing five different collections of Falguni's Shibori Scarves on two separate pages. Make sure you take a look at all five collections.
