From The Hermès Fall-Winter 2019/20 Seasonal Scarf Booklet: Henri d'Origny's design Mors à jouets is one of the house's great equestrian classics. Placed in the horse's mouth and connected to the reins, the bit allows the rider to steer his mount. They are called à jouets ("mouthing bits") when they are dotted with small beads of metal that encourage salivation and help the animal to relax its mouth. A detail of this composition has been enlarged to become the subiect of the scarf itself. Set against a background of fine stripes reminiscent of the cotton weaves used to make men's shirts, it becomes Mors à jouets chemise.

From The Hermès Fall-Winter 2019/20 Collection Website Description: In 1982, Henri d'Origny combined braided straps and bridles from the Émile Hermes collection with bits featuring "keys" - small metal pieces added to encourage the horse to salivate and relax its mouth. In French, these bits are known as "mors a jouet". Fine stripes similar to those found on men's cotton goods adorn the background of this shirt design. A classic and timeless combination of leather, metal and fabric.
