PORTIA is a prominent character in William Shakespeare's play "The Merchant of Venice." She is a wealthy and intelligent heiress from Belmont, known for her beauty and wit, and her personality is a powerful blend of intelligence, compassion, and strength.This feminine mauve hue exudes a similarly subdued-yet-powerful presence. The unusually beautiful pink warp threads and dark mauve weft threads reflect the nuanced layers of Portia’s character. Alluring, radiant, and dynamic, the silk and the character share a very special kinship.
