Silk scarf designer, county of origin?

    Can you help me with any information about this silk scarf? It is 33" sq (84 cm) and weighs 33gm. It has been pressed, but the hand rolled hem is still "plump" leading me to believe the owner handled it with care. Donated with a collection of vintage furs, other signed silk scarves and Victorian jewelry.
    Are the colors or design similar to a designer you've seen?
    Thank you for your help, V

    What a wonderfully detailed print! You're correct in thinking that the lack of pressing on the hand-rolled hem is a good sign of careful treatment. However, I can't help with the designer. I have seen Nina Ricci trompe l'oeil printed scarves but they are signed and not very similar to this. In what country do you live? That might help with the origin of the scarf.

    Thank you. I'm in Arizona in the United States. Many of the items from this donor appeared to be European. Other scarves were Hermes, Herrera, Dior and Ralph Lauren - all likely vintage. V
