Item: AUTHENTIC HERMES PARIS LES PLUMES Silk Scarf HENRI DE LINARES Blue
Listing number: 121200231774
Seller: jasonfels
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/AUTHENTIC-H...31774?pt=US_Scarves_Wraps&hash=item1c3818c55e
comment: This looks like Plumes II from 1965 but I don't get the "Coplon's" tag. It's a store founded in Charlotte, NC in the 1970's.
Is it authentic?

This is authentic.
it is a tag for franchise shops selling H scarves (most of these shops do not carry H any longer). Most of them were regular items and not (as the listing indicates) just made for this specific concessionaire.
 
Thanks for the reply! I have another question: I bought this beautiful "Citrouilles et Coloquintes 35" Silk in navy Scarf from a seller in Europe, Belgium, LabelLOV.com The scars' colours seem very accurate and sophisticated, but the seams are a little uneven, a little warped for a Hermes. All my other hermes scarves, store bought, are very evenly done at seams. Could it be because this one is an older one? Could it be a fake? Has anybody worked with this seller before? Any ideas on seams and how they age? They are not unrolled or anything, just bellow Hermes craftsmanship I think. perhaps a tad thinner silk than usual, but it could just be my impressions... Here is the scar:

This is authentic (even with the few pics I can say that).
Each Hermès scarf is a unique piece, especially the hems. They can be irregular, warped or whatsoever. I have been buying H for ages and I have many boutique bought items, which are new and have 'funny hems'. Of course, the hems do age. When a scarf is dry-cleaned, washed etc, it has an effect on the hems.
