Silk Scarf | Wattle

I wrote for her, I fought for her,
And when at last I lie,
Then who, to wear the wattle, has
A better right than I?

Inspired by Henry Lawson’s poem The Wattle, this luxurious silk scarf offers a contemporary way to wear Australia’s national flower. Golden wattle has long been associated with loyalty, sacrifice and national pride, making this piece a thoughtful expression of remembrance and connection.

The design features a wreath of wattle, drawing on First World War silk postcards and commemorative motifs. Its circular composition speaks to continuity and honour, reimagined as a refined, wearable design that moves effortlessly from commemorative moments to everyday styling.
