About Product

What to buy from Baku, Azerbaijan? Caviar! Featuring iconic caviar lid designs, this kelagayi scarf is the perfect fun accessory for a stylish look or a memorable souvenir from your travels.

Each scarf is handcrafted using the ancient technique of kelagayi making. The intricate metalwork on our unique stamps demands that our artisans refine their skills to manage the complexity of each design, ensuring the preservation of every delicate detail.

Additionally, some scarves undergo a meticulous dyeing process, being dipped into several individual color baths over the course of three to four days, making the creation of each scarf a true labor of love.

Artisanal / Sustainable

At Menzer Hajiyeva, we intertwine the essence of luxury with the principles of sustainability and ethical craftsmanship. Each of our kelagayi scarves is a testament to this belief, handcrafted with meticulous care in our atelier by a vibrant new generation of female artisans. We are committed to not only preserving the ancient art of kelagayi but also enhancing the economic stature of women in the villages of Azerbaijan. Our atelier is a sanctuary of safety and creativity, where any woman from the village of Goradil can learn this beautiful craft, develop her skills, and earn a fair wage. Discover more about how our commitment to these values shapes every scarf we create.

How to Clean

For the best care, always opt for dry cleaning. If you must wash it at home, gently hand wash using cold water and a specialty detergent. Avoid soaking; simply swirl and press out excess water without wringing. Allow your scarf to air dry, keeping it away from prolonged sunlight exposure to prevent fading. Store in a cool, dry place, either folded, rolled, or on a hanger. If needed, use a steam press on a low setting or a cool iron to remove creases, handling delicately to protect the fibers.
