This is a thin, royal purple shawl. The material is unknown as I've thrown away the tag, but it has a silky sheen and gives an elegant impression. I bought it a few years ago for a friend's wedding, but I only used it once and haven't had the opportunity to wear it since, so it's been stored away. It's a piece that combines both glamour and formality, so it's perfect for weddings, as well as formal occasions like graduation and entrance ceremonies. There are no noticeable scratches or tears, but please understand that it has been stored at home.
