The story behind
In 1837, within the walls of his workshop at 56 rue Basse-du-Rempart, Thierry Hermès crafted a collection of breathtaking harnesses, each one a true masterpiece intended for the Maison's first clientele: horses. Fast forward to 1927 and it was no surprise that Hermès drew inspiration from the equestrian realm to bring its first piece of jewelry to life, the coveted Filet de Selle bracelet. With a nod to the world of horse riding, the shapes of galloping horse heads, harnesses, bits, and dog collars gracefully emerge, their forms and contours paying homage to the Maison's roots.
