Vintage scarves drop, Wed 2 PM Paris
Designed by Françoise Faconnet, this Hermès carré takes inspiration from a Renaissance astrological table preserved at the Musée de l’Observatoire in Paris. At its heart shines a golden sun, encircled by zodiac signs, lunar cycles, and celestial markings that trace the passage of time. The motif echoes the origins of astronomy in Mesopotamia, where the first calendars and zodiac signs were created. Crafted in pure silk with hand-rolled edges, it merges science, mythology, and art history into one striking design. Celebrated by icons like Jackie Kennedy, the Hermès carré endures as a timeless emblem of elegance.
