This description is from their site:

The result of a 13 individually cut silk printing screens, this new madder silk scarf is nothing short of a masterpiece. Made in Macclesfield using traditional, environmentally friendly hand-printing methods, the enchanting design is inspired by medieval drawings featured in Gaston Phoebus's book, Medieval Hunting Scenes. Both delicate and characterful, it promises to be a constant source of outfit inspiration. With each colour requiring a separate screen, the perfectly aligned pattern is only possible thanks to artisans who have perfected this skill for decades. A skill now in scarce supply, this scarf will become even more precious over time, as it continues to delight the senses with its intricate scenes and madder finish.

While the reductions of these items are modest, the original pricing is more than reasonable. I have seen lesser ones at twice the price. These exquisite scarves are a rarity, and while they are in the Men's section, they are ideal candidates for unisex wear. I wear them with all of my outerwear, from dressier coats to my tweed shooting coats to my Barbours.

Also on sale are their Men's Made in Scotland Lambswool pullovers, in crew neck and v-neck styles, and in a wide range of colors. Again, these are a lot of quality for the price.

And don't miss these new offerings in the already stellar range of Cordings' knitwear. They are uniquely thick and uniquely soft, almost felted in feel, and Made in Britain.
