Scarf measures 20 x 20 inches. This feels like silk but full disclosure, there is no tag attached so I cannot be certain -- that is just my honest guess based on comparing with other silk items. There are some patches on the scarf where the fabric appears to be thinning -- these are not holes, just what you might see with normal wear on an older item, and they are not visible when the item is folded / tied / worn. This is a really nice pattern -- it reminds me of the Burberry plaid but with Halloween coloring. Wish I could pull off a driving scarf but I'm just not chic enough. (sigh) Hope this can help somebody else channel their inner Grace Kelly! Thanks for viewing.
