Story about the Design:
Cooke’s witty composition frames the carré with meticulously rendered coloured pencils arranged by hue, converging toward a central field of life-like pencil shavings. The trompe-l’œil realism and the hand-lettered “À VOS CRAYONS!” evoke the playful moment that sparked the design: the artist’s child brought him a pile of pencils and asked what to do with them—Cooke answered on silk. Issued in several colourways, the green ground highlights the multicolour spectrum while letting the warm cedar-toned shavings pop, a balance Hermès is renowned for in its silk printing.

Artist's Story:
Leigh P. Cooke is a British surface-pattern designer known for transforming everyday objects into elegant still lifes for luxury houses. After designing for Salvatore Ferragamo (1998–2003), he began collaborating with Hermès in 2001 and has created multiple beloved carrés (including In the Pocket, Fleurs et Plumes, Flower Power, Dragonflies). His work is prized for careful arrangement, technical draftsmanship and a quietly playful sensibility.

Collector's Notes:
“A Vos Crayons!” is considered a modern Hermès classic and remains sought-after across colourways; the green variant is especially fresh and wearable. Authentic examples show the artist’s signature “L. P. Cooke” hidden on a pencil, crisp hand-rolled hems, and the central scatter of shavings with the title script. The motif also appeared in later formats (e.g., Twilly/45) and enamel bangles, underscoring its enduring popularity. Condition and completeness (care tag, box) significantly influence value; mint pieces with tag in desirable colours sit at the top of the range.
