Antique French Playing Card Scarf

Susan Carson has the innate ability to create beautiful and timeless pieces inspired by nature. Each detail originates from one of the eighteenth- or nineteenth-century botanical prints she began buying in English, Parisian, and stateside flea markets more than twenty years ago. In her Charleston studio, Carson works with her digital designer to “cut” the images and pair them with contrasting backgrounds: latticework, dots, stripes; her experience in interior design informs the mixing of bold patterns.
