Raw Silk Jacket Inspiration

Carcoar is a historic town in the Central West region of New South Wales, Australia, in Blayney Shire. It is located in a small green valley, with the township and buildings on both banks of the Belubula River. During the Gold Rush era, it notably became the banking and administrative centre for the area. Many of the 19th-century buildings still stand today and are protected by the National Trust.

In the spirit of the Australian Gold Rush, Joe has created the 'Carcoar Gold' Raw Silk Jacket. The golden fibres of silk are delicately woven with a muted gold in a horizontal weave to create the reflective essence of a gold nugget. It is without a doubt a wonderfully rich addition to any outfit, formal or otherwise.
