Summer Hat in Raw Silk with Flower

Welcome to Floating Stone’s blog site.

We have gathered some pretty amazing stories over our five years of silk trading in Asia and have a ton of photos to show you. It is time to share some of these stories with you. We hope that you will enjoy meeting some of our favorite people and will get to know a little bit about their lives.

Articles are in the works which will be posted soon. Floating Stone is all about colour. We have to find ways to  communicate colour across cultures and continents. This article will tell you a little bit about our adventures and misadventures with colour. We really hope to hear your feedback and suggestions on this story.

Another article tells  silk trading stories that involve crossing bodies of water. A bit of a modern day Marco Polo story with a feminine twist. A third story, inspired by crossing  roads in India tells of  mind boggling, road crossing challenges in Asian capitals. But enough about what is coming…check out what is here!

Lots of new products are in and they are colourful – bags, purses, scarves, hats and head bands  in violet, raspberry, olive, mandarine and more with my daughter, Matia’s,  prints on the silk.

Just in as the weather starts to sizzle, a great every day summer hat in Fushia, Mandarine, Olive, Lemon and lots of other colours, each with a unique cotton print to match up with the raw silk. For the adventurous fashionista, there is an all raw silk, super wide brimed,  chic hat with an amazing flower. For those of you who don’t want the hat but need to keep your hair off the face, our head band collection is fantastic, exploding with colours and style. You will find layers of silk, bows and silk string twists. They are completely unique and stunning in silk.

I have to get back to work on the website so that you can actually see all of these gorgeous silks. We are currently getting new photos taken for the website and will have the pages up toute suite…check back soon.
