Story Behind The Scarf

The Hermès Les Cannes scarf, designed by Virginie Jamin, draws inspiration from a collection of antique canes that were displayed in the Hermès private museum. The canes, some with hidden compartments like parasols, were a unique find and became the focal point for this particular scarf design. The scarf's design also incorporates elements of a "tale" with a lonely prince, a feathered parasol, and a hermit living in a chestnut tree.

Virginie Jamin discovered a collection of antique canes in the Hermès private museum. These weren't just ordinary canes; some had hidden compartments concealing parasols.

The scarf design features a montage of these antique canes, with various details like ivory pommels, a top-hatted gentleman's head in painted porcelain, and a duck's head carved from horn. There are also horses' heads, horseshoes, and figures of a jockey and a man holding his mount.

Beyond the visual representation of the canes, the design also tells a story. It features a lonely prince, a feathered parasol (likely inspired by the hidden parasols in the canes), and a hermit who lives in a chestnut tree.

The Hermès scarf, in general, is a highly sought-after item and a symbol of the brand's luxury and heritage. The "Les Cannes" scarf, with its unique inspiration and design, is no exception.
