Poppy Silk Scarf

$220 NZD

Inspired by the poppies planted in the artist's back garden, the Poppy scarf is an exquisite composition of colours, shapes, and motifs. The creative process involved hand drawing shapes, cutting them out and scanning then using multiple layers. A sense of fluidity is created by the play of opacity and transparency of this artwork. The mix of darker greens, oranges, and softer pinks gives depth and movement to the scarf pattern.

ABOUT the MAKER

Walker & Bing

Walker & Bing is a New Zealand-based textile studio founded by artists Nikki Walker and Darya Bing. Working from their design studio in Auckland, they bring a fine art approach to the creation of exquisite scarves and sarongs. Each piece begins as a visual exploration — using traditional techniques such as painting, ink, print-making, and drawing — and is then carefully developed into a wearable artwork. With themes drawn from history, nature, and the imagination, every Walker & Bing design is rich in meaning and visual depth. Once finalised, the original artworks are digitised and refined for printing onto luxurious fabrics. The result is a collection of considered, collectible pieces that celebrate both craft and creativity. At Tessuti, we are proud to offer a timeless selection of Walker & Bing textiles that elevate the everyday with their artistic integrity and local provenance.
