Description
Our ‘Carmina’ Silk Velvet Shawl is part of the ‘Classic’ Collection. It stands out for its elongated silhouette, providing versatility when worn. With two sides, both hand-painted, it combines silk velvet on one side with Satin Georgette silk on the other, achieving a unique and elegant drape.
The silk velvet, pleasing to the touch, provides warmth, adapting to your temperature without feeling overwhelming. Its lightweight feel and iridescent effect add exceptional visual beauty.
Each shawl is a one-of-a-kind piece. Starting with a blank canvas, the entire creation process, from painting to steam-setting, finishing, and ironing, is meticulously carried out by hand in Margaret de Arcos’ workshop, showcasing true artisanal craftsmanship.

My visit to Margaret de Arcos’ workshop: It was my friend Rocío, a Sevillian with whom I share experiences in the Netherlands, who introduced me to this artisan brand. After an initial conversation with Ángelo, the commercial director, I took the opportunity to explore their beautiful workshop in the heart of Seville. Stepping inside, I found myself immersed in an atmosphere filled with creativity, artistic energy, and a burst of vibrant colors.
I appreciated the artisanal skill with which Camila crafts each piece, experiencing the natural feeling of luxury and sophistication that silk brings. We enjoyed a coffee and a relaxed chat; it was inspiring to hear firsthand about the brand’s history and learn about their new projects. I returned home with the Limonero fan and foulard, their intense shades of green, blue, and yellow keeping the fantastic memories of my visit alive.

The advice of Belma Craft & Art
The key is for you to feel at ease. You might want to drape it loosely around your neck allowing the fabric to cascade down your back, you can wrap it snugly around your arms and shoulders to ward off the cold, or secure it with a pin at the front for extra comfort. Personalize it and experience the radiance!
