100% Cashmere Shawl for Women – Hand-Printed Maple Leaf Gradient, 200×70cm

A cashmere shawl that is also a work of art.

Vinci Cashmere’s Hand-Printed Maple Leaf Cashmere Shawl is crafted from 100% pure Mongolian cashmere — lightweight at just 85 grams, yet genuinely warm for autumn and winter wear. Each shawl is hand-printed with a unique maple leaf motif featuring artistic color gradients that flow seamlessly across the fabric: the design transitions from one tone at the edges to a contrasting hue at the center, creating a painterly, watercolor-like effect that is impossible to replicate with machine printing.

At 200 × 70 cm (78" × 27"), it’s one of the longest cashmere shawls in the collection — generous enough to drape fully over the shoulders, wrap around the neck with length to spare, or style as an elegant evening stole. Three artistic colorways, each with its own emotional palette.

Why This Cashmere Shawl Is Exceptional

• 100% Pure Mongolian Cashmere — No wool, no acrylic, no synthetic blends. Sourced from Inner Mongolia, one of the world’s premier cashmere-producing regions, where the harsh climate produces fiber with exceptional fineness, natural warmth, and long-lasting softness. Approximately 6–8 times warmer than sheep’s wool by weight.
• Hand-Printed — Each Piece Is Unique — The maple leaf gradient design is applied by hand using artisan printing techniques. Unlike digital or machine printing, hand printing produces subtle tonal variation and soft gradations that give each shawl a slightly unique character. No two pieces are exactly alike — a quality that distinguishes handcrafted cashmere from mass-produced alternatives.
• Maple Leaf Gradient Design — The maple leaf is one of the most universally recognized symbols of autumn — associated with the season’s warmth, color, and natural beauty. The gradient technique transitions color across the fabric in a way that mimics the natural color variation of autumn leaves: rich at the edges, lighter at the center, with soft transitions between tones.
• 85 Grams — Lightweight Yet Warm — At 85g, this shawl is significantly lighter than standard cashmere wraps (150–265g), making it comfortable for all-day wear without feeling heavy. The natural insulating properties of cashmere mean it provides meaningful warmth despite the light weight.
• Generous 200 × 70 cm (78" × 27") — At 200 cm, this is one of the longest cashmere shawls available — long enough to drape fully over the shoulders with length to spare, wrap around the neck multiple times, or style as a full-length evening stole.
• Naturally Hypoallergenic — Pure cashmere is significantly softer and finer than wool, gentle against the skin and neck, suitable for those with wool sensitivity.
• Gets Softer with Every Wear — Pure cashmere softens and improves with use and proper care. A true wardrobe investment.

The Three Gradient Colorways

Each colorway is a complete color story — two tones that transition across the fabric in a gradient that evokes a specific mood and season.

• Grey → Gradient Blue — Cool grey edges fading into a soft gradient blue at the center. Calm, elegant, and quietly sophisticated. The most versatile colorway — works with navy, white, black, and earth tones. Evokes a misty autumn morning.
• Light Orange → Coffee — Warm golden orange edges blending into rich coffee brown at the center. Cozy, radiant, and deeply autumnal. The most seasonal colorway — pairs beautifully with camel, cream, and burgundy. Evokes the warmth of fallen leaves.
• Rust Red → Warm Tones — Deep rust red edges melting into softer warm tones at the center. Graceful, bold, and timelessly elegant. The most striking colorway — pairs beautifully with black, ivory, and grey. Evokes the richness of late autumn color.

How to Style It

• Shoulder Shawl — Drape over both shoulders with the gradient flowing from edge to center — the color transition is most visible and most beautiful in this styling.
• Neck Scarf — Fold lengthwise and wrap around the neck. At 200 cm, there is ample length for a full wrap with ends to tuck or let fall.
• Evening Stole — Drape loosely over the shoulders over an evening dress or formal outfit. The gradient design and hand-printed quality make it occasion-appropriate without additional accessories.
• Travel Wrap — Fold and use as a lightweight, warm layer on flights or in air-conditioned spaces. At 85g, it adds virtually no weight to a carry-on.
• Framed Art — The maple leaf gradient design is striking enough to display framed as a decorative piece. A 200 × 70 cm format works beautifully in a standard panoramic frame.

Cashmere Care Instructions

Dry cleaning recommended — particularly important for this shawl to preserve the hand-printed gradient design. Professional dry cleaning best maintains the color depth and tonal gradations of the print.

Hand Washing (if needed): Use cold water (max 30°C / 86°F) with a gentle cashmere detergent. Submerge and massage gently — never rub the printed surface. Rinse thoroughly and press out excess water by rolling in a clean towel.

Drying: Lay flat on a dry towel, reshaping to original dimensions. Keep away from direct sunlight — sunlight will fade the gradient colors over time. Do not tumble dry.

Storage: Fold (never hang). Store in a breathable cotton bag away from direct sunlight. Add cedar balls or lavender sachets to protect from moths.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this really 100% pure cashmere — no blends?

Yes. This shawl is made from 100% pure Mongolian cashmere — no wool, no acrylic, no synthetic blends. The print is applied to the surface of the cashmere fabric; the base material is pure, unblended cashmere throughout. Sourced from Inner Mongolia, where the harsh climate produces fiber with exceptional fineness and natural warmth.

What is hand printing, and how is it different from digital printing?

Hand printing applies the design to the fabric manually using artisan techniques — screens, blocks, or rollers applied by hand rather than by machine. The result is a print with natural tonal variation, soft gradations, and subtle imperfections that give each piece a unique, handcrafted character. Digital printing applies ink uniformly and mechanically, producing a more consistent but less nuanced result. For a gradient design like this one — where the color transition is the entire point — hand printing is the only technique that achieves the watercolor-like softness of the gradient.

Will the print fade or wash out?

With proper care (dry cleaning recommended), the gradient print will maintain its color depth and tonal quality for many years. The cashmere fiber holds dye exceptionally well due to its protein structure. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight during storage, which can fade any dyed fabric over time. Do not rub the printed surface when hand washing.

Is it warm enough for winter despite being only 85 grams?

Yes — cashmere’s natural insulating properties mean that even a lightweight cashmere shawl provides meaningful warmth. At 85g, this shawl is best suited for mild to moderate cold — autumn temperatures, cool evenings, air-conditioned environments, and transitional weather. For extreme cold (below 20°F / −7°C), layering with a heavier coat is recommended. The lightweight format makes it ideal for travel and all-day wear where a heavier wrap would feel burdensome.

Is it suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes. Pure cashmere is naturally hypoallergenic and significantly softer than standard wool. The fine, long fibers are gentle against the skin — including the neck and face. Most people with wool sensitivity find pure cashmere completely comfortable for all-day wear. The hand-printed design is on the outer surface of the fabric and does not affect the softness of the cashmere against the skin.

Which colorway is best for a gift?

The Grey→Blue gradient is the most universally wearable — cool, elegant, and works with the widest range of wardrobe colors. The Light Orange→Coffee gradient is the most seasonal and evocative — ideal for autumn gifting and for someone with a warm, earthy wardrobe palette. The Rust Red gradient is the most striking and dramatic — ideal for someone who appreciates bold, artistic accessories.

Does it come in gift packaging?

Yes. Every Vinci Cashmere shawl arrives in our signature gift packaging, ready to give without additional wrapping. The hand-printed gradient design makes this shawl a particularly distinctive gift — it communicates genuine artisanal quality and thoughtfulness from the moment it’s opened. Popular for birthdays, anniversaries, and autumn and winter occasions.
