Produced In Scotland

Woven on traditional looms at a
mill founded in 1797, it takes more
than 30 steps to weave a single scarf.
Each stage is completed by dedicated
craftspeople using expert knowledge
passed down from generation to
generation.

Crafted from Cashmere

The fabric is washed in local
spring water from the surrounding
countryside and brushed with teasels
– dried flowers that are drawn along
the surface of the cashmere to ‘raise’
the cloth, creating a natural lustre
and an ultra-soft finish.

Iconic Details

A careful dyeing process ensures
only the most vivid colours in the
yarns of the Burberry Check. The
scarf is then finished with fringing,
using a specialised machine that
stretches and twists each thread
together.

The Burberry Check scarf was born from innovation, when a buyer in the Burberry Paris store thought to remove the check lining of a trench and use it to create new accessories.
