SHALE – Handwoven Raw Silk Jacket

Layered by Nature. Defined by Craft.

Shale is a sedimentary rock of depth and complexity, formed over millennia by the compaction of clay, quartz, and calcite. Its distinctive thin, parallel layers create a natural textural beauty—one that is mirrored in the intricate craftsmanship of this handwoven raw silk jacket.

The Shale Raw Silk Jacket is a refined tribute to this geological wonder, featuring a herringbone weave that echoes the delicate strata of shale rock. The interplay of black, grey, and cream silk creates a timeless, sophisticated piece that is as versatile as it is distinguished.

THE ART OF THE WEAVE

Herringbone Texture – Reflecting the natural layering of shale rock.
Black, Grey & Cream Silk Threads – A monochromatic blend of understated elegance.

HOW TO WEAR IT

Dress It Up – Pair with charcoal wool trousers, a crisp white or deep slate-grey dress shirt, and polished leather shoes for a look of effortless refinement.
