This is a warm gold thread winter scarf. A scarf is a piece of cloth that is worn around the neck to keep us warm on cold days or simply as an additional fashion accessory. In cold countries, knitted woolen scarves are popular because they retain heat the best. Scarves have been worn since ancient times. In 1350 BC in Ancient Egypt, Queen Nefertiti is said to have worn a tightly woven headscarf, and a statue of Ashurnasirpal II from the 9th century BC depicts him wearing a shawl. During the reign of the Chinese Emperor Cheng, from 259 to 210 BC, scarves were used as military insignia to distinguish the rank of Chinese warriors or their status as officers. Many of the terracotta warriors in China are depicted wearing such scarves.
