Notes: At the Musée National de la Marine in Paris, there is an incredible carved stern from Reale, a warship dating back to the 17th century. It was part of the royal fleet of Louis XIV and required an unusually large crew and sailed until the early 18th century. Hugo Grygkar, found inspiration for this design in the work of Pierre Puget. Puget, a French artist from Marseille, but studied in Florence and Rome, mastering sculpture to such an extent that he was later called “the French Michelangelo.”
From The Hermès Spring-Summer 1982 Seasonal Scarf Booklet: A masterpiece of brilliance and majesty. A symbol of royal power. The Louis XIV ornamentation of the "General's galley" in service from 1690 to 1715.
Size Guide
- Twilly: small but mighty, use it like a typical scarf, as a bag handle, as a belt, and more.
- 45cm: this is the typical pocket square size, will fit around the neck like a bandana.
- 55cm: this is the bandana size typically printed in 3 colors to look like a traditional bandana.
- 70cm: this is a great option for petites and they are typically made out of a lighter weight silk than any of the other formats.
- 90cm: this is the classic Hermès scarf size. It's very versatile and if you're looking at any vintage photos, this is the scarf size that's worn.
- 140cm: the largest size of the bunch, almost reaching 5 ft. It's hard to capture the scale in photos but these are incredible as a lightweight shawl in the summer, or folded for a warmer feel in the winter.
- Shawls & Other Sizes: there are a few styles that Hermès does not make every season which are just as lovely and fit into this category.
