The Xu Zhimo Silk Scarf

The Xu Zhimo 100% Silk Scarf by Howard Guest comes is a designer box complete with pamphlet making this an exquisite present. The pamphlet, in both English and Chinese, celebrates the history of Xu Zhimo and his association with Cambridge and his great poem, “On Leaving Cambridge, Again.” This forlorn yet romantic poem reflects on his time at Cambridge and speaks of the vistas from King’s –

The golden willows by the riverside
Are young brides in the setting sun

The scarf features a close-up photograph of a willow that would have stood at the time that Xu Zhimo was at Cambridge.
