Cashmere Scarf with Hand-Embroidered Compass Rose — ALCYONE
A turquoise cashmere scarf featuring a hand-embroidered compass rose, inspired by Alcyone, the leader of the Pleiades — a symbol of the Mediterranean spirit.
In Greek mythology, Alcyone watched over the Mediterranean Sea, calming the winds during the Halcyon Days — that rare winter moment when the waters rest in perfect serenity.
Her story is one of deep devotion: She loved her husband, Ceyx, so fiercely that, upon learning of his death, she threw herself into the sea to join him. Moved by their love, the gods transformed them both into kingfishers, forever united above the waves. A story of love, of calm, and of seas that soften even the wildest winds.
This cashmere scarf reimagines Alcyone’s legend through a compass rose — a hand-embroidered interpretation echoing the spirit of the Mediterranean she once protected.
A piece of pure art-à-porter. A design born from myth, embroidered for the loving woman whose confidence is calm and grounded. For the one who knows the power of her presence without ever having to raise her voice.
