Description
Brand: Hermès Design/Pattern: Caraibes (Caribbean) Designer: Christiane Vauzelles Material: 100% Silk Size: 90cm (approx. 35.5" square) Color: Yellow/Gold with Light Blue and White Country of Origin: Made in France Style: Square Scarf (Carré) Year(s) of Issue: 1974, 1991 The Caraibes scarf captures the exotic spirit of the Caribbean through Christiane Vauzelles' intricate composition of tropical birds, lush botanical motifs, and intertwined decorative elements. Rendered in luminous yellow and gold tones against a serene white and pale blue ground, the design unfolds across a lattice framework that frames each vignette of island flora and fauna. Hermès introduced its first silk square in 1937, and since then each carré has been executed in pure silk twill through an elaborate process requiring hundreds of hours of engraving and screen-printing to achieve the depth of color and detail that defines the house's scarves. Hand-rolled hems and French craftsmanship ensure that this signature accessory remains both a wearable work of art and a timeless emblem of refined elegance.
