Sweet Sentiment Cotton Scarf
Sweet Sentiment Cotton Scarf

What could be sweeter than this gift for a loved one who loves the Earth? Hand-loomed cotton in olive green and aqua, the Sweet Sentiment Scarf features a hand-screen printed verse. Our artisan partners at Sasha Exports who created this scarf share, "This is a Sanskrit verse from our ancient scriptures. It means that there is nectar-like sweetness in our relationship with the environment like river, trees, mountains and also human relationships like father, mother and kin. Since we are all part of nature, the sweetness envelops all relationships."
