Authenticate This BURBERRY

Can someone help me identify and authenticate a scarf I found in an antique shop? The little Burberry London tag was hanging on by a thread and so I placed it in a drawer for safekeeping and now I cannot find it [emoji30] The edges appear to be handrolled and stitched. It caught my eye because of the buttery yellow color (which is difficult to make out in the photos) and the Asian print. I paid $15, so if it's a fake then no biggie.

Hi Terite,

Thanks for the response. I have a follow up question. I feel this scarve in picture is harder than the one I purchased before in store which was so soft. I know you can not see hard/soft on the picture, but when touching, you will feel the difference. Will it be concern? Thanks.
Are they both cashmere? Cashmere should be soft - is it just because it was ironed? I think it should be soft to the touch.

Hi, is this a real Burberry? I'm interested in it but can't find the name. Also, the serial number that I'm interested in is Iteffep4sca which is a many other Burberry bags, see attached. Thank you!

Usually there would be a little 100 percent silk tag or Made in Italy.
This looks interesting and it does not look fake to me.
I am curious about that -
Are they all making cotton? Send a better photo of a few other panels

Here are close ups of a few panels. The panels appear to tell a story from bottom right to left, starting with the picking of cotton to transporting the woven fabric on a trade ship:

If you have ordered this - send pictures when it arrives - my concerns so far are the sewn edges - but that depends on fabric - I can't make out any of the tags that are sewn on, and tag placement looks odd. Paper tag is genuine but that does not really mean anything as you often see genuine bag, genuine tags - placed with fake stuff.
