AbOUT ALBA AMICORUM
Alba Amicurum brings together like-minded creatives, providing a salon environment for nurturing a community of artists. The atelier continues to expand the collaborations by meeting and introducing new outstanding artists, but ultimately would like to establish an artist residency; a shared space for all art disciplines for support and experimentation. The work is translated onto the finest silks and cashmere by a skilled family of Italian artisans in Como, who print scarves for the fashion world’s most prestigious designers.
Each limited-edition piece is authenticated with a numbered certificate and packaged in a bespoke box made from wheat straw paper. We also offer gift presentation in a handmade, Japanese, Paulownia wood box.
“Each scarf is an artwork in its own right, its fluidity is perfect for draping, wrapping, folding or hanging – allowing each piece to become a very personal reflection of its owner”
