Accessorize Your 70's Look With Razberry Boutique's Vintage Scarves


Vintage Vera Plaid Scarf

Vintage Vera Blue Paisley Scarf
This year the 70’s fashions are back. This was my favorite era – I was a teenager and wore all the crazy and wild clothes. Hip Hugger Jeans, Platform Shoes and Maxi Coats.

This spring the 1970’s fashions are raging hot! All the fashion magazines are showing 70’s fashions with an updated flair. 70s fashion styles were a bit farout and they are today too!

Vintage Vera for Valentine's Day!

Valentine’s Day is coming up soon and that means spring is just right around the corner. There is still time to buy that special gal that unique gift a vintage scarf from Razberry Boutique.

We have an extensive collection of Vera Scarves .  There is no need to wait for a 7 day auction to end we have listed the majority of our Vera scarves at Buy It Now with Make Me An Offer. So stop by and make me an offer! We have over 30 scarves ranging from the 1950's to the 1970's.  Oh, I forgot to mention shipping is FREE!


Who says that scarves are just for winter?  Here is a Vera sheer scarf with Vera's version of an American Indian Print that will enhance your spring wardrobe.  This scarf measures 15 X 44. 


Below is a mod floral print by Vera.  This one I wanted to keep for my self however, I can't keep them all. This scarf is 100% polyester and can be machined washed.




We also have 3 Vera's that are from the 1950's that are in near mint condition.  We found these in an antique store in the Monterey California area.  


Here is a 1950's Vera hand painted wagon & tulips silk scarf - this was hiding in a scarf drawer for years.   The label is still on the scarf it reads "Scarves by Vera - PAT Pending - Pure Silk Hand Rolled. It has a different feel than most silks - could this be made of parachute silk? Signature is white and is hard to see there is no copyright after Vera's signature. 
Below is a vintage Vera from 1958 a black & white silk scarf made USA.   This scarf also has a label Scarves by Vera - Pure Silk Designed & Hand Screened in the USA  and once again there is no copyright after Vera's signature.




The last scarf we have in our store from the 1950's is this green & white polka dot silk scarf.  We think this signature dates back to 1959.  For more information on Vera's signatures and how to date her scarves you can go to the Vera Company Blog to  help you with dating Vera scarves.


 
Early in March we are going to have a Vera Blast as I call it.  We have been traveling around the West Coast in search of vintage Vera's.  We have over 100 in or inventory that we will list in our store in March.  We have not set the date yet.  We will keep you posted.

Razberry Boutique Vintage Vera Scarves - Vera Neumann

This weekend we are featuring the designer simply known as “Vera”

Vera Neumann, (1907-1993) is known world wide as “Vera”. She loved nature, people and travel and this is reflected in her art. She used vivid, bold, brilliant colors, floral patterns and sometimes the ladybug trademark. Her scarves are highly collectable; her designs are still fashionable today - as they never go out of style. Timeless!!!!
We have traveled from San Diego to San Francisco in search of Vera scarves. We discovered them in Antique Shops, Thrift stores and at Estate Sales. We found some Vera scarves dating from the late 1940’s early 1950’s and some rare and hard to find items.

Vera began her business in 1947. Here are some pictures of her early scarves that we found this summer in California. Vera used the ladybug because it means "Happiness". The scarf below is an example of one of Vera's early works.  You will notice that the Vera signature has no copyright mark.






Here is another example of Vera's early work, hand painted wagons with tulips. This scarf has a unusual feel, it is silk. Could it be made of parachute silk? Her earliest scarves were made of parachute silk as there was an abundance of this silk after WWII.

We also found several floral scarves this summer. Some were made of silk, and a combination of vinyl and silk, and some were printed on sheer silk fabric.

Vera used bright, bold colors and mixed and matched colors along with abstracts and geometrics. Vera had her own interpretation of the world.

Vera also painted geometrics; once again she used bright bold colors. Circles, triangles, blocks and swirls of color.




Vera also painted paisleys however; she had her own version of a paisley print. Paisleys were very popular in the 1960's and 1970's and agian today.


We just put up for auction a scarf from the Gold Piece Collection: Vintage Vera Gold Piece Collections Collector Scarves that we found in perfect condition.  The auction ends on November 2nd.














If you would like more information on Vera and her designs go to The Vera Company web site and blog The Vera Company Blog .

With the holiday’s right around the corner get a jump start on your holiday shopping. Stop by our eBay store Razberry Boutique  and take a look. I am sure that you will find something that you like. We have other designers like Oscar De La Renta, Echo and Anne Klein.
