Jahna, so lovely to see your beautiful silks and your posts! These are spectacular designs and colorways.

Thank you for sharing them, and do model one or two when you gave a moment. The Silk Road design is marvelous.
 
I thought I would chime in here before Annie Faivre ends and "CHINA, JAPAN, KOREA, MONGOLIA: scarves featuring EAST ASIA" begins with this crossover: Au Fils de La Soie ...a wonderful scarf about the Silk Road

I believe that is the Magao caves (Dunhuang, 1000 Buddhas) in the background... There is so much iconography in this scarf, and I have forgotten a lot of it. Maybe some student of The Silk Road can fill me in...

I do know that that is Venice on the left, silk moths in the upper left and right corners, Karst pinnacles? just above the camels...

Here's a good map:

This is wonderful Jahna, and perfect timing as I am about to start a new book entitled The Silk Roads, A New History of the World, just after I finish my book on the history of the battle of Agincourt! Yes, I am an obsessed history buff, hence why so many of the stories behind H scarves intrigue me :smile1:

The Zenobie is a beautiful pattern and you look amazing wearing it! I favor this one over CI as well. I am sure you will be happy with all of your fabulous selections.
Thank you so much angelfood, I love everything that I got, a very lucky gal!
 
14 Feb 2016 CHINA, JAPAN, KOREA, MONGOLIA: scarves featuring EAST ASIA

This is the first of my Geography Week posts -- I was told there had been requests for more of this sort of thing, so I hope you enjoy and have a lot to contribute. My introduction will be short and sweet this week, as I'm still tired from Photoshopping versions of the Annie Faivre Monkey Quiz that nobody understood last week. :wacko: :laugh:

Jahna and I have already shared Au Fil de la Soie, so I'll add a couple of others:
Sichuan for China and Daimyo Princes du Soleil Levant for Japan
A perfect intro abq2atl, thank you!!
 
Bova, this is classy on you, congrats!
Thank you so much dear croisette!

"Route de la Soie" is a great favorite of mine.

Here it is in a different CW.

Does anyone know this edition of of a well-loved classic:"Jonques et Sampans"?
.
This one was edited for the 50th Aniversary of the People Republic of China as the dates on the bottom of the scarf say.

It is a jacquard with stars.:loveeyes:
Wow, two exceptional scarves palomaB, but that jacquard is so unique, I love it!

Oh my Jahna, you have an amazing collection of East Asian themed scarves, I think this week is going to get me in trouble again!!

Today I wore my Annie Faivre carre mythes et metamorphoses ❤️

Sorry for the bad quality pic...
So lovely on you HCLV, and there are never any bad quality pictures on this forum :smile1: You look great!
 
This has been a fantastic start to the week ladies. Marvelous.

I have very little to contribute this week, but here is my sweet little Année Dragon (apologize, lazy morning, I'm still in my nightgown! [emoji15]. Must get moving), and some archived shots of my Ex Lib Kimonos.
