Scarf Care Tag --Color & Age?

[Balto Bag Lady]

Some of my scarves have white tags and others have black. Is there a difference in their ages? They were purchased within seven months of each other at Hermes boutiques.
I would have searched, but....
Thanks,
Judy

I don't think it indicates a difference, I have scarves which are definately the same year which have either white or black care tags. I believe it has more to do with the colour of the scarf. For instance, my dark brown plisee has a black care tag, whereas my light blue carre has a white care tag. I have a feeling that size is more indicative of the age, but not sure.

I believe that white or black tags are sewn on based on the color of the scarf- white for lighter, black for darker/bright colors.

Of course! That makes perfect sense, she said, slapping the side of her own head.
It's like going into a restaurant wearing black and they have white linens on the table and the maitre d' discreetly switches the napkin from white to black. Had to ask about that once, too.
Thank you both!

No problem- I wondered about that too for a while!
