Sarah's Silks Purple Dinosaur Wings

The wings are crafted from 100% pure mulberry silk and hand-painted with eco-friendly dyes. Because each pair is painted by hand, slight differences in the purple make every set unique, part of their handmade charm rather than a flaw.

The wings span 66 cm when a child spreads both arms wide. That reach gives a strong feeling of flight, letting children glide and swoop as they imagine soaring high above prehistoric skies on their own adventures.

Draped over the arms, the wings finish a kids dinosaur costume with a graceful stretch that turns a child into a soaring creature. They team up well with a matching tail, claws or ears for a complete winged dinosaur.

Hand-wash the wings with a mild shampoo or dish soap and warm water, then hang them to dry. A medium iron restores the shine. Careful hand washing protects the hand-painted silk and keeps the purple colour looking vivid.

Because the wings are individually hand-painted, the purple varies a little from pair to pair. These small differences are a natural result of the handmade process, giving each set of wings its own character in the dress-up box.

The wings invite sweeping, imaginative movement. With a stretch of the arms, children become flying creatures gliding above pretend forests and cliffs, making up soaring stories alone or acting out prehistoric adventures with friends.
