Story Behind The Scarf

The Hermès Concours d'Etriers scarf, originally designed in 1964 by Françoise de la Perrière, tells the story of Émile Hermès's passion for collecting equestrian objects, particularly stirrups. The design features a collection of 16 different types of stirrups, sourced from various origins and dating back to the 18th and 19th centuries. The scarf's intricate details showcase the diversity of stirrup designs, from heavy French ones to lighter Hungarian types, reflecting their different uses in riding.

The Concours d'Etriers scarf is more than just a fashion accessory; it's a piece of history, inspired by Emile Hermès's personal collection. He viewed these objects not just for their beauty, but also for their history and the stories they carried. The scarf design captures this idea, presenting a "joyful and unique choreography" of stirrups, with the sounds of metal, leather, and wood resonating through the design. The scarf also features a double-sided design, with the reverse side resembling shadow puppets, further enhancing its narrative.

Customer photo review of Bolduc Ribbon Orange Vintage Silk Scarf Coffee Run Keychain Bag

This is a beautifully made accessory that perfectly holds 4-5 lipsticks making them easy to access in my purse. The craftsmanship is lovely and the interior fabric and velvet backing fabric perfectly match the Hermes scarf. The customer service was excellent. My order was shipped by US Postal Service and delayed. Tracking said it was in Guam and then Hawaii. I appreciated the prompt responses to my inquiries- so professional! David promptly sent out a replacement. Ultimately they both arrived and I’ll send one back. Thank you!

Customer photo review of Rubans du Cheval Venetian Red Vintage Scarf Drawstring Crossbody Bag

I was so happy to find your site. I love vintage scarves and can never seem to get them to look right on me. So when I saw your gorgeous repurposing of these fabulous scarves, I knew I had to have one. It lets me wear it in a beautiful, new way!

Rubans du Cheval Venetian Red Vintage Scarf Drawstring Crossbody Bag

I was very excited about this clever concept. I feel this is a fun and responsible way to use luxury textiles. The execution sadly fails with the ‘ crystal’ or whatever material it is, drop part. It looks very cheap and therefore takes away from the earrings as a whole.

Stunning piece! I’m so excited to wear this gorgeous bag charm and tell everyone who asks its story. What a wonderful way to up-cycle vintage pieces. I love it so much and will recommend to all my friends!

GG Lilac Vintage Silk Necktie Bag Charm

It was not quite as exciting as I thought it would be. Good idea, but the leather strap is way too long for my Hermes Evelyne. I had to wrap it around the strap hardware several times. The quality of the charm itself is nice though.

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.
