Hermes 1987 Feu d’artifice silk scarf

The Feux d'Artifice scarf is a rare collector's piece issued in 1987 by Hermès for the 150th anniversary of the house. This stunning scarf is designed by Michel-Duchene depicts the “Feux D’Artificier” on horseback with fireworks in the back ground in vibrant jewel tone colours. This is one of the rare scarves that are set in Jacquard silk instead of the normal Twill silk that Hermès uses, Jacquard silk is normally only used for a batch of special designs and would have to be in theme with the scarf. On this piece, the jacquard loom used is also in the shape of fireworks just like the design. This scarf was only issued once in 1987 and has since been discontinued. Measures 90cm x 90cm. Excellent condition. One small pull at one edge, otherwise flawless.
