Vintage Gold Leaf Scarf

Vintage Liz Claiborne velvet devoré (burnout) scarf featuring a striking leaf motif. It combines rich burgundy, plum, and black velvet details raised over a sheer, golden-mustard satin blend base. This specific texture is created via a burnout or devoré process, where a chemical gel destroys the cellulose fibers (like rayon or viscose) to leave behind a semi-sheer pattern on the backing fabric. The rich jewel tones look spectacular draped loosely over a solid black cocktail dress, or styled casually as a hair wrap or neck tie paired with a camel wool coat. This vintage Liz Claiborne silk blend velvet burnout scarf was manufactured during the late 1990s to early 2000s (Y2K era). Measurements and both sides shown in photos (the scarf was folded in half and then measured so 29” x 2 = 58” in length). In excellent condition. Smoke free home.
