A beautiful and collectible Hermès Paris “Passementerie” silk scarf, featuring an elaborate arrangement of decorative tassels, cords, braids, fringes and passementerie ornaments.
The design is by Marie-Françoise Héron and was first issued in 1960, making this a particularly interesting piece for Hermès scarf collectors and lovers of vintage French luxury accessories.
The scarf features an elegant ivory/cream central field with a deep red/burgundy border, decorated with intricate tassel and cord motifs in shades of gold, yellow, brown, beige, burgundy and red.
The highly detailed artwork depicts an extensive collection of ornamental tassels, braided cords, fringes and decorative trimmings arranged across the scarf.
The combination of the cream background and rich red border creates a sophisticated and collectible appearance. This is an especially attractive design for collectors of vintage Hermès Carré scarves.
