Product Insights
First created in 1887 by Arthur Silver as an Aesthetic Movement furnishing fabric, Liberty’s Hera Pure Silk Scarf reimagines the peacock motif—mythologically linked to the Greek goddess Hera and symbolizing divine beauty and feminine regality—as a 100% Italian silk twill accessory with hand-rolled edges. At 65 x 66 cm, its diagonal weave delivers a lustrous sheen, fluid drape, and clean knot-holding, allowing versatile styling as a bias-fold drape, narrow band, choker collar, or Italian twist. However, the silk twill and hand-rolled edges require dry cleaning only, as water damages the fabric and archival print.

| Hera Pure Silk Scarf Made With Liberty Fabric: Choose this if you want a heritage Liberty peacock-feather print: the Hera design features a finely detailed tapestry of floating peacock feathers in a purple colorway, with a decorative double-line border framing the pattern. Choose this for pure luxury silk twill, made in Italy, in a square roughly 26 inches (65 x 66 cm) size. Note it is a smaller neckerchief-format square, so it suits lighter styling rather than a full 90 x 90 cm wrap.[1,2,3] | Pure Silk Flamboyance Scarf Made With Liberty Fabric: Choose this if you want a pure silk square scarf made in Italy from Liberty's Flamboyance pattern, a large-scale 1969 design echoing the ornamental character of Liberty's furnishing fabrics from that era. It comes in a 63.5 x 63.5 cm (25 inches x 25 inches) square of 100% silk twill with a rolled hem all around, showing a dense multicolor floral paisley print in the Patterned Ecru colorway. Note it is offered in a single ONE SIZE variant, so check the listed dimensions suit how you plan to wear it.[4,5,6] | Ianthe Pure Silk Scarf Made With Liberty Fabric: Choose this if you want a small pure-silk square for wearing around your neck or in your hair, made in Italy from luxurious 100 percent silk twill and printed in Como with Liberty's Ianthe print—an Art Nouveau design of small flowers and sinuous lines. It comes in one size, a square of 17 inches by 17 inches (43 by 43 cm), in the Baby Blue colorway with a pale sky-blue field behind navy floral motifs. Note it is a compact neckerchief size rather than a large wrap, so it suits those who prefer a smaller silk square.[7,8,9] |
