Yet another scarf update



A new Hermes scarf for me, picked up thrifting this week.


 'Les Fetes du Roi Soleil'. This one has a lot going for it....good condition ( one tiny spot) , a French theme, exuberant design, 'fireworks' motif in the weave, a title and a designer. I think this is a keeper and will join my collection.

 

Bought on the same trip. I am sure this is an old Liberty scarf.....no label or logo, but I am sure. The color, motif and finish tell me so. I have been this route before and  wonder how long it will be before I find a replica  with a logo or label. Once I waited  15 years.
