The Argaman&Defiance Ringer is made of 100% raw silk and printed by hand. 

Some call it an ascot, a neckerchief, a hankie, or bandana. We are calling it the Ringer. A 21”x 21” raw silk square piece that is cut, sewn and painted by hand in our Chicago, IL studio.

This is the perfect piece for summer. Wear it as a neckerchief, a headband, or bandana. Anyway will keep you cool and cute this summer. 

The edges of the Ringer scarf are left raw for the perfect drape! Caring for this scarf is super easy! Dry clean or hand wash with any non-bleach detergent in COLD water. Hang dry and press on a low heat setting. With wear, raw silk will get soft and cozy.

What is raw silk? Glad you asked - Raw silk is silk that has not been stripped of sericin. Silk emitted by the silkworm consists mainly of two proteins, sericin, and fibroin; fibroin being the structural center of the silk (aka - fine silk), and sericin being the gum coating the fibers and allowing them to stick to each other, and also making the fiber efficient at trapping and holding heat. As a result of having the sericin left on, raw silk is somewhat heavier in texture.

About the brand: Argaman&Defiance paints and prints intricate patterns with water-based inks. A&D naturally dyes the scarves with pigments found in tree bark roots and leaves. 

From stitch to surface design, Argaman&Defiance is creating every piece by hand.
