The website describes Petit h as "a new branch of the Hermes Group".
Now that we know there are all these fabulous "scraps", it would be a shame for them to stop the process. We see how beautiful the "sow's ears" can become.

Jinjy loves Petit h. Sorry for the bad quality of the pics.
Great purchases Restricter!!!
I went to check out the Petit H line this morning at the Madison Ave. store. I was greeted by an enormous panda bear made out of chocolate and vanilla macaroons! (tried to take a picture but was told by the guard not to).
The pieces are very fun. The SA showed and explained each and every one of them - I was lucky to get there at a quiet moment.
I even got a chance to meet and chat with Pascale Mussard, the creative director of Petit H, who was incredibly nice and humble. She told me it was her dream since she was a little girl to create this line. I told her that her work comes at a good time, given LVMH's hostile takeover attempts, to show that Hermes is something different and unique.
I fell in love with a Rocabar tote bag ($1,400) with black leather handles, a leather jumprope, leather paper-cup holders, luggage tags, stones wrapped in a leather handle, a mobile made from a porcelain teacup cut in pieces... The silk bracelets were very affordable, I think the small ones were $140. But the one thing I thought was the gift for "someone who has everything" was a puzzle made out of crocodile.
I was told by the SA that they expect to get weekly shipments of new objects and that I should stop by often to check it out.
From left to right: Paper cup holder, zebra chest of drawers, stones wrapped in leather, bags made out of macramed scarfs, alligator toy car (inside the store)
Here are some pictures of the store windows (sorry the pictures seem to show sideways on the computer)

That's the long necklace and the pendant was $495. It also came in beige and red.
I can do some modeling pics for you when I get home from work tonight if you don't mind waiting. If you have a choice, the longer one is the more versatile of the two. You can double it and wear as a choker, quadruple it to be a bracelet and come up with all sorts of variations. Jinjy thought it was a fabulous cat toy.
Do they let you choose the color/pattern of the silk necklace in the store?
They only allow the colorway online. No choice of pattern.
I must say that H tops LV on making smart business decisions. Who would ever think that you can profit from scraps and also doing in the name of 'ego-friendly' ?? They could have made these as souvenirs for store openings/special events for their loyal clients.
The pieces are beautiful but thinking that they would charge a premium from scraps make me sick, let alone the fact that you don't even have a choice of design/colors when you buy this line. Where would you pay $190 for a cup holder and not get a choice of color or leather ?

They let you choose the pattern but they didn't have very many of them available. However, they expect another shipment of Petit H items soon.
