In the heart of the Australian summer, bushfires leave their mark on the land, yet from the ashes, our native flora regenerates, thriving in the wake of destruction. What remains is charcoal—an element of transformation, resilience, and renewal, rich in depth and texture.
The Charcoal Paperbark Raw Silk Jacket takes inspiration from this cycle of rebirth, weaving the deep, natural sheen of charcoal silk into the intricate paperbark weave. The result? A jacket that shifts with the light, exuding a quiet power and undeniable sophistication. This is a modern interpretation of formal elegance, with just enough edge to command attention—the kind of jacket that would complement Bond on an evening out.
Handwoven over 200-300 days, with only 8-10 jackets per weave, this piece is crafted for those who appreciate bold refinement and effortless confidence.
Handwoven raw silk – structured, luxurious, and full of depth. Paperbark weave with a natural sheen – enhancing light and movement. Refined yet striking – equally at home in formal or high-stakes settings.
Like charcoal left behind after fire, this jacket is a reminder that strength comes from reinvention. Extremely limited—secure yours before it smoulders away.

I shop at Joe Bananas knowing that I’ll be wearing quality that looks good and feels good. To stand out in a crowd, go to JB. I’ve been shopping there since 2017. Greg T Ross, Editor, The Last Post magazine and Radio Show
I bought this shirt to wear with my JB "Opal" jacket to an event in Hong Kong.
As usual, Wayne in the QVB was super helpful and I'm really looking forward to unveiling this stunner in a few weeks - just wish my gut was as flat as the model's!
Simply love this Jacket, the JB team were amazing, so good that I bought two jackets and can only imagine I will buy a third in due course. The jacket is light and so versatile, it has helped create an amazing capsule wardrobe
The shirt looks to be well made. The fit is loose but not so that it looks baggy. It looks and feels great on. I have received several compliments on the colors.
My new silver Iron Bark jacket looks so cool all dressed up. I have worn it a number of times in first few days on a business trip. It goes so well with both colorful and dark colored shirts that I can dress it up or down with jeans. It fits superbly and enjoyed other people's envious comments along the way. I also wear it with some non-crush linen pants and after travelling in them all day they still look super sharp. Non-Crush linen trou,s are a smart trouser alternative for busy travelers as did not need the iron in 4 days, they still looked great and super nice to wear with the half silk lining on my legs. Well done Joe Bananas
