Silk and the finest wool give this truly covetable scarf the bright colours and elegant drape you'd expect from silk whilst offering the warmth of wool (without the itch!).
With two contrasting sides (one vibrant and eye-catching, the other muted and subtle) you can style this versatile accessory to suit your mood or the occasion. Simply fold to show your chosen side and then throw round your neck. Voila!
This intricately designed accessory belongs to the Guns and Roses collection and takes inspiration from a pair of engraved rifles that belonged to the Maharja of Jodhpur in the late Victorian period. The guns are braced in an art deco display of roses. This is floral print with a bit of a bang.
Our scarves come in branded presentation boxes so they can be kept in pristine condition.
Unique pocket squares, silk ties, square scarves and long silk-wool wraps show exquisitely crafted antique firearms braced in arabesques of roses. This explosive collection juxtaposes beauty and violence in exquisite colour and intricate detail.
Antique weapons have a strange allure. The love, care and artistry that was devoted to these violent objects is remarkable. And the image of a gun still has power today as Andy Warhol showed with his pop-art.
In Guns and Roses we show the terrible artistry of mankind surrounded by the beauty of nature.
The rich ducal history of Florence gave rise to this sumptuous purple colourway. On the dark side of this scarf the two purple colours are very tonally close but one has much greater saturation and a bluer colour. This gives them an electricity which catches the eye. On the vibrant side we have bright purples and pale dovelike lilacs contrasted with a jade colour for the leaves and yellow fire as the trigger is pulled. Yellow and purple are colour opposites so these little highlights really pop.

The General Product Safety Regulation (GSPR) is a critical framework established by the European Union to ensure that products placed on the market are safe for consumers. This regulation mandates that manufacturers and distributors take all necessary measures to prevent risks associated with their products. As a responsible entity, Furious Goose is committed to adhering to these regulations and enhancing the safety and transparency of our offerings.
Under the GSPR, several key rules must be followed:
1. Product Safety: All products must be safe for use and should not pose any risk to consumers. This includes ensuring that products are designed and manufactured to meet safety requirements. Silk, wool and cashmere scarves are not considered risky products but we will be compiling some safety advice regarding fire risk etc.
2. Labeling and Instructions: Clear and accurate labeling is essential. Products must include safety information, usage instructions, and any necessary warnings to inform consumers about potential risks. We will be adding QR codes to relevant pages on our website to our packaging. This will ensure that consumers have access to all necessary details to use our products safely.
3. Traceability: Manufacturers must ensure that their products can be traced throughout the supply chain. This includes maintaining records of product origin and distribution. Our products are all made in the UK but we will will nonetheless be adopting batch numbers on our labels to improve traceability.
Furious Goose is dedicated to ensuring that our products not only meet but exceed safety expectations. By proactively addressing GSPR requirements, we aim to foster consumer trust and contribute to a safer marketplace.
