Lake Powell Scarf
Lake Powell in dark browns, blacks and greys
From the ESA x TAMMAM climate change collection, using images of Earth from Space, on luxurious sustainable materials.
These scarves are simple draped accessories, the only ready to wear products the Tammam studio will create because they don’t need to fit any particular body shape or size, squares and rectangles of beautiful 100% natural fabric finished with cotton thread - created to circular principles - completely compostable - should you ever want to dispose of it, printed using an eco process with GOTS standard water based inks. Everyone in the supply chain is paid fairly for their work.
Available in handloom cotton, peace silk or embellished options.
NB due to current supply issues the cotton we use for these scarves may not be organic certified, however we are committed to sourcing the most sustainable raw materials available when we go into production, while still supporting the incredible artisans who weave this cloth.
All items are produced in very limited quantities. There may be slight variations between production runs.
About the Image
This Copernicus Sentinel-2 image allows us a wide view of Lake Powell and its dwindling water levels amidst the climate crisis. After decades of drought, water levels in Lake Powell, the second-largest humanmade reservoir in the United States, have shrunk to its lowest level since it was created more than 50 years ago, threatening millions of people who rely on its water supply.
The drop in water levels comes as hotter temperatures and falling water levels leave a smaller amount of water flowing through the Colorado River.
Climate change is expected to make droughts more severe in the future. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Spring Outlook for the US, nearly 60% of the continental US is experiencing drought.
