This Hermes silk scarf in a vibrant color of orange is entitled Le Regard de L'Arctique, "The view of the Arctic", and designed by Antoine Tzapoff who meticulously studied the Inuit and detailed their visors and glasses in this lovely scarf.

"In winter and early spring, the light of the Far North reflected by the snow and ice is of rare intensity. To protect the eyes, the Inuit therefore imagined a long visor and glasses, whose small circular or slit holes let in very little light. Set against a decorative background typical of the Bering Strait region, visors and glasses from the nineteenth century adorn this square. The visors of the lower Yukon, Alaska and Kodiak Island are adorned with ivory, Arctic duck tail feathers or sea lion whiskers. Walrus ivory glasses date from 500 to 2000 years ago."
