Vintage Hermès Carré 90x90cm

This stunning vintage Scarf from the French house of Hermès is made from the finest Silk. It is 90 x 90 cm in size and is called a Carré which means square in French. This particular design is called ‘Stately Wheels’ and was designed for Hermès by the English designer Stuart Patience. He drew his inspiration during a visit to the Royal Mews, stables of the royal family, which opened their doors wide to Hermès for the composition of this scarf. In the center of the drawing is a Windsor Grey horse, the same one who pulls the famous Gold State Coach. The twirling play of his reins frames the no less royal Queen Alexandra’s State Coach and Diamond Jubilee State Coach. At the corners of the square, the English, Northern Irish, Welsh and Scottish symbols, delicately placed on colored wheels, unite the four countries of the kingdom. This scarf is timeless, in grand condition and comes in its original Hermès box. Postage from France included.
