Discover the Ethical Elegance of Mainie's Desert Rain Dreaming Silk Scarf

Celebrate tradition. Embrace elegance. Wear Mainie's Desert Rain Dreaming silk scarf with pride.

Love colour? Then Mainie's Desert Rain Dreaming silk scarf is your perfect match. This exquisite piece features an original artwork, Ngapa Jukurrpa, by the highly esteemed Warlpiri Aboriginal artist, Bessie Nakamarra Sims. Bessie's journey from her traditional homelands in the remote Tanami Desert to becoming a celebrated, world-acclaimed artist enriches every thread of this luxurious accessory.

Artistry and Storytelling

The Desert Rain Dreaming design encapsulates an ancient Warlpiri Water Dreaming story, a time-honoured narrative handed down through many generations over tens of thousands of years. It vividly captures the sun-drenched hues of Central Australia's desert landscape, blending tradition with contemporary elegance. Bessie Nakamarra Sims' inspirational artistic legacy lives on through this scarf, reflecting her deep connection to her ancestral homelands.

Ethical Craftsmanship

Crafted from 100% pure silk chiffon and digitally printed to preserve the essence of the original artwork, each Desert Rain Dreaming scarf is meticulously finished with a hand-rolled hem. Mainie ensures that every step of production - from design to packaging - adheres to ethical standards. The scarf is carefully presented in a gift box with information about the artwork's provenance, honouring Bessie Nakamarra Sims and her Warlpiri heritage.
