RARE Original 1950 Congress Silk Scarf Salvador Dali Picture(s) and Description:

RARE

Rare Salvador Dali print on silk scarf from 1950 created for the International Silk Congress, a post WWII event created to bring together countries with an interest in the silk industry to discuss the future of silk and its uses. Print depicts the egg of a silk worm in the center and a myriad of moths flitting around it, as well as a woman bedecked in moth wings as a gown. During the Silk Congress there was a fashion show featuring silk garments and it is believed this scarf was commissioned by Dali. I have only seen one other which had more color added. Not sure if this is another with less color as part of the few that were made? Definately original & not faded so it is as it was made. As shown it is in lovely condition, has been folded for years, fortunately the insects have not got hold of it apart from two small areas, one in the top left corner & another on the top right, lower down. Edges on top corners are quite thin but not split or torn. Scarf measures approx. 34" or 86cm square. Color is Ivory/Cream. Pics show some variation but that is more due to lighting & my camera that the actual scarf. Has label HAND ROLLED PURE SILK MADE IN OCCUPIED JAPAN. I'm happy to offer a full money back guarantee (on return of the purchase) if the new owner isn't happy that it is as described.
