Description

Vintage finds exclusively ours.  Our vintage Hermes scarf animal menagerie is sustainably sourced, locally made with a history and story to be told. 

Reimagined from the world’s finest collection of vintage Hermes scarves, our stuffed animal is the perfect gift or decorative accent.

One-of-a-kind from a vintage Hermès Astrologie Dies et Hore scarf, each piece is unique handmade in a family owned workshop in South Carolina.

Graceful, loyal, and resilient, our penguin carries with it a quiet strength and timeless symbolism. In cultures and modern interpretations alike, the penguin represents the kind of luck that matters most—steadfast love, enduring friendship, and the courage to thrive in any season.

Resilience & Good Fortune
Surviving—and thriving—in some of Earth’s most extreme conditions, penguins are seen as symbols of courage and perseverance. They represent the good fortune that follows when we adapt, endure, and move forward with heart.

Loyalty & Connection
Penguins are deeply social and famously loyal, often forming lifelong bonds. They speak to the beauty of connection—of showing up for one another, again and again.

Story Behind The Scarf

The Hermès Astrologie (Dies et Hore) scarf, designed by Françoise Faconnet, is inspired by a Renaissance astrological table. First issued in 1963, the scarf depicts an astrological wheel with sun, moon, and zodiac signs, often set against a black background with yellow and white details. While the scarf's official title is "Astrologie," it's widely known as "Dies et Hore" (Latin for "days and hours") due to that inscription on the design.

The scarf has been reissued multiple times, including in 1988 and 2005, and remains a popular and iconic design and was a personal favorite of First Lady Jackie Kennedy.

FROM THE FOUNDER

I won't list a piece I wouldn't put in my own home. Twenty years of luxury retail taught me what authentic looks like — and what doesn't.
