La Ronde des Heures - it had to be :)

[FloraFlanell]

Dear fellow scarfies,

By coincidence this scarf found it's way to me. I was looking at a scarf ring it was sold with, so it was a nice bonus, as the price was good.
As I was searching to learn more about the design, I had problems in finding it's title - It says "Parmi les fleurs je compte les heures''
(I'm counting the hours under the flowers), but I think it is"la Ronde des Heures".
Anyway the title "la Ronde des Heures" is the title of the french Version of my favorite book as i was a Child - imagine my surprise as i googled and the cover of my old favorite book appeared BTW i spent many hours years ago to find the title and the book itself on the net, as it got lost as we moved once. It contains a story for each hour of the day in a little village and the characters are animals - there is a book for the hours of the night as well. I still love to read it from time to time

You can see the colorway I've gotten in this link http://www.rubylane.com/item/209934-RL800/Hermes-Parmi-les-fleurs-je
(not my scarf - it's at the drycleaner at the Moment)

I'll show you my own pics when i get it back from the cleaner maybe you can help me in the meantime and tell me how old my new friend is?

Thank you very much for reading!

Oh, and the Ring of the Rings, which started it all
Can be worn as a finger ring as well, don't you think? A tad loose maybe

I bought my La Ronde des Heures in 1986. The coloration shown in Malleries.com was the same one pictured in Le Monde Hermes 1985/1986. It was re-issued in 2000 in silk and also PM Cashmere/Silk.

Thank you very much for your input! I had a feeling it must be oder than 2000 which color do you have?

Oh, I just see you mean the coloration on malleries.com - Mine is the green one like the one on rubylane

I have a red/white, a navy/cobalt, a cobalt/light blue and an Aubergine PM Cashmere. I always liked that pattern.
