CUNZARI SCARF
CARTE SERIES
Swords, cups, coins and clubs - these are the traditional suits of Italian playing cards. They evoke the magic of long winter afternoons spent with grandparents. A deck of cards and endless challenges to another hand next to the cosy hearth. Playing cards, entertainment for the masses par excellence, are strongly linked to folklore and tradition in Italy. Bergamo, Bologna, Treviso and Naples, the list is long: each area of the country has its own version of the suits. Forty rectangles, each with its own image, that can mean defeat or victory. This is where we took inspiration for our "Carte" (cards) series of scarves.
CUNZARI
Proudly emblazoned on the sides of the rural carts used in Sicily, this symbol served as a warning to criminal elements, warning them to keep their distance. The ace of clubs is a symbol of strength, action and success, linked to those who consider themselves masters of their own destiny and have inordinate faith in their abilities. We named our silk scarf inspired by Sicily “Cunzari”
CUNZARI is a product in 100% silk twill, made and packaged in Italy.
