Giant scarf in silk twill with hand-rolled edges (100% silk).
The scarf 140 is reinvented as the velvety wash scarf. Washed by our artisans' expert hands, the scarf is transformed into a relaxed, mattified, and ever so slightly faded piece, gaining an irresistible downy touch. This exclusive process makes each scarf unique and can slightly alter its dimensions.
See the Care section for details on how to care for your Wash scarf.

The story behind
The Kelly en perles scarf is an adaptation of an original work by a Cameroon artist which had been commissioned for the year of Africa in 1997 and used to illustrate a Le Monde d'Hermès cover. The print is a fine rendering of the relief of tiny embroidered glass beads, a traditional African folk art used for jewelry, ornaments and garments. On this scarf, the naive handling of the Kelly bag becomes the central motif of a small character: two diamonds on either side of the handle represent the eyes, the handle itself is the nose, and the strap looks like a smile.
