From The Hermès Spring-Summer 2010 Seasonal Scarf Booklet: It was at the demand of the Metropolitan Museum of New York that this carré was created in 1975 to accompany an exhibition entitled "Scythian Art". Presented in Paris under the title "Scythian Gold" in spring 1976, the exhibition was a great success. Arriving from Asia well before the Christian era, the Scythians had an important influence on the art of jewellery, thanks to a craft of fine and creative gold working. The men covered themselves in gold and decorated arms and harnesses with various engraved elements on the themes of horsemanship and the hunting of animals (lions, roe deer, stags...). On the carré, one can admire horse combs, pectorals, necklaces, amulets, clothing buckles.
