bold fans

This gorgeous circular fan comes from creative Ghanaian designer Ali Mohammed. The artisan uses tangerine orange cotton printed with a delightful pattern in burnt sienna. The lovely fan features supple leather handles, and can be securely closed with a leather knot on the rear of the fan when not in use.

Purple turns into lilac in a delicious palette of colors orchestrated by Vinita for this wide shawl. She works with traditional dyeing techniques to create a shawl of bold elegance that is loomed of raw silk.
