Our Mariam Scarf is a stunning, lightweight 100% linen scarf hand made in Ethiopia. The linen is produced locally, woven on a traditional loom and dyed using local plants and herbs.  

Woven from sisal fibre by women in Kenya. The fibres are dyed using natural materials and the quality of workmanship is exceptional. The bag has a leather and timber closure. Leather patch with the Hamlin logo. As with all handmade items, there may be some variations in colour.
