Ashford Moss No.1 - Scarf

Featherweight linen and silk hand-dyed scarf in moss green, 22cm x 210cm, woven and handmade in Ireland.

The ancient island village of Cong straddles two counties on Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way, between the loughs of Corrib and Mask. A sacred battleground in Celtic folklore, a 7th Century Abbey where Ireland’s last high king died, and later the backdrop to John Wayne’s ‘The Quiet Man’, this is a place where time doesn’t dare move.

At the centre of this village, accessible only through a series of turreted drawbridges guarded by footmen, Falcons & Great Irish Wolfhounds, is Ireland’s Neuschwanstein, Ashford Castle.

Inside its walled grounds every tree carries this unique iridescent moss, the texture of a dragon’s skin.
