Each Lisa Kiss scarf embodies the poetry of artistic expression and enduring elegance. Each scarf design was originally painted by hand in Sag Harbor by Lisa Kiss. Our cashmeres are produced by artisans in Jaipur, India, where painters carefully copy the original by hand to produce each shawl. Please note, the Botticelli Leaf cashmere collection is limited in availability. A small number of pieces are available.

Cashmere (70%) and Silk (30%)
The Hand-Painting Process
Each “run” of fabric, measuring a few meters long, begins as a blank white canvas. Lisa’s painting technique utilizes an ancient Japanese method of hanging fabric traditionally used to paint textiles for Kimonos. The full process can take up to four days to produce a finished scarf. Learn more about the process here.
