"Between heritage and modernity, Nyara creates an elegance that has meaning."
Nyara hair scarf
The Nyara hair scarf embodies a vision of luxury that is both intimate and assertive. Crafted from high-quality silk, it boasts a delicate feel, a fluid drape, and a perfectly controlled hold.
Its exclusive artistic print, inspired by African textile heritage and reinterpreted in a contemporary style, gives each piece a unique dimension. Nyara thus becomes much more than an accessory: a visual signature, a personal imprint.
Designed to enhance every look, this silk scarf is worn with natural elegance: tied in the hair, as a headband, around the neck or wrist. Its skinny shape allows for great freedom of style, from everyday wear to the most sophisticated occasions.
Every detail reflects the demanding standards of Élisabeth Akaïa Kaï: an approach to clothing as a work of art, produced in limited editions, within a framework of responsible fashion and slow fashion.
Nyara does not follow trends.
It transcends them, with grace and character.

A luxury designed against the grain
In contrast to mass production, Nyara adopts a made-to-order approach.

Delicate, essential care
To preserve the brilliance of your Nyara silk scarf and the precision of its design, hand wash it in cold water with a product suitable for delicate textiles.
Avoid excessive rubbing.
The material prefers lightness.
Natural drying
Air dry flat or hung, away from direct sunlight.
Tumble drying is not recommended, to preserve the fiber.
Controlled ironing
If necessary, iron on a low heat, ideally on the reverse side or with a protective cloth.
Gentle steam is sufficient to restore the scarf's fluidity.
Preserving its beauty over time
Store your scarf flat or delicately rolled, away from moisture and rough surfaces.
Avoid direct contact with perfumes or chemical products.
