Icy Blue - Large Weighted Silk Veil
The frozen ice shimmers in the sunlight, iridescent and serene. Blue encapsulates it, forming a beautiful edge to remind us that ice is water, reflecting and refracting the sky, the oceans, the waters. A sweeping ombre dye with the white at the center highlights the dancer’s torso and face, centering focus amidst a swirl of a storm, a wind of change, a dance of peace and prosperity.
This veil is unique, and inspired by the sky during winter, the frozen lake michigan as seen from afar, and icicles dripping from windowpanes.
And yet, it also hearkens to cool early summer mornings & fresh icy beverages that invoke the chill when we need it most.
What inspires you to it?
Each weighted silk veil is a unique art piece, created by Gaea Lady (assisted by Laine Bones). This style of ‘flow prop’ is designed to get you out of your head and into your body by enveloping both dancer and viewers in high quality Chinese silk. It is accessible to beginners, yet offers complexity for years and years of devoted explorations & refinement. The weighted edge ‘leads’ the rest of the veil, offering more direction than just a silk veil itself. A whole flow-losophy has emerged out of Gaea’s experience with this prop, and she teaches online via classes & tours sharing it. Versatile: costume, garment, skirt, cape, wrap ; as a decorative element in the home ; and as flow prop that can be used in a myriad of ways. (This design is the product of 10+ years of development and refinement by Gaea herself, please do not replicate without permission! )
Size (approx) : 9ft x 55in with a diagonal tail opposite the weighted edge
Movement : This large style veil is big enough to wrap most bodies, and flutters sumptuously with the tail diagonal edge in curvaceous shapes that are varied and infinite. Ideal for larger spaces (but can be adapted for smaller with skill) this large shape takes up space! I recommend you move your body a lot when dancing with large veils. [The dyed color spot on this veil creates more spiral movement for the eye, making your swirls catching and fetching.]
Fabric : 5mm lightweight sheer silk. wafty, delicate, beautifully airy.
Dye: double two toned acid dyed & slow dipped in a careful ombre, with the center as a half moon.
Each veil purchase comes with a “Care & Keeping” sheet with a link to free intro classes & silk veil challenges.
If you’d like YOUR own vision, request a custom order.
