Just received this today. Came very fast. I purchased the black and navy blue. They are beautiful. They have a little weight to them but are still delicate, however I think if you take care of them they should last a good long time. I like them so well, I plan to get more colors. They would make a wonderful fashion accessory if you don't dance too. Trust me you'd get compliments. If you're considering this scarf, buy it. You can't beat the price.
