SK #CAPE Beauty Lies Within (M)

A subtle blend of smoky gray shot through with shimmery silver masks the brilliant surprise of explosive color. For concealed within the restrained silken tones is the bold sweep of vivid turquoise, and the intense flash of fuchsia fantasy. Hand embroidered by Chinese artisans, the serene visage of a Chinese woman is further enhanced with beadwork and silk origami flowers. A flower button of filigreed and enameled metal discs by American jewelry artist Ronda Terry provides the perfect jeweled finish.
