First issued in 1946?! I was told by mooks they are such a classic,I never realised how so though,I have the color of the one above and though I was a little afraid of the color at first,I am falling in love with it so much!

That color looks so pretty!!! I'd love to see an action shot!!! :flowers:
 
Katel, definitely not Rouge Coquelicot, I just saw that today. It's a red with orange undertones. Loud colour! Rouge Dragee is pale pink, actually it seems lighter than the one LiW posted.

This one looks like a beige brown?
 
LiW your new shawls are gorgeous - thank you for posting them!

so which one is the one above, I wonder? My guess is mangue 07...I think clementine is an orange color...

Mangue 07
Clementine 08
Rose Dragee 09
Rouge Coquelicot 10

I'm not sure which color this is. I have the Rose Dragee. The Rouge Coquelicot is a poppy color. Clementine has to be orangey. I thought the Mangue would be like a mango color. Obviously I'm hispanic and my french is non-existent. So I could be wrong.
 
Confettis D'Ex-Libris
Ivory 01
Noir 05
Brun Terreau 06
Rose Dragee 09
Rouge Coquelicot 10

Saw the above colours today. Ivory is off-white/creamy. Rose Dragee is a pale pink and Rouge Coquelicot a bright red with orange undertones. Brun Terreau is a greyish brown with green undertones. This is the only one which the Ex Libris motifs appear contrasting. With the rest of the colourways, the print just blends into the cashmere/silk.

Obviously the feel of these stoles are not as silken smooth as the GM shawls as the composition of cashmere/silk is 85/15 (versus the 65/35 for the GM shawls). Notwithstanding, it's still soft and snuggly to be wrapped in one. I love the simplicity and understated-ness of these stoles.
