You're right, honeylocks! I think that's why the dye stain didn't jump out at me when I decided to buy the scarf -- it was a low price, so I should have guessed there was more than a little wrong. OTOH, it's a hard-to-find pricey scarf so I don't mind having even a flawed version in this colorway!I actually do really like the color run, it gives the scarf a very nice ombre effect.
What a fantastic result for each of them bunnycat. You must be delighted.Here's a few to start the week. Some DD's from my recent Hermesmatic visit and my DD Jungle Love:

Love the dragonflies!Love all the green posts last week. I wore green dragonfly last week and omnibus today.
Yes, I can see you in many of these!I am always amazed how similar we choose colors, most of these could be mine, but we are only twins on the bain the mer (such an amazing scarf in this CW!)

The mesh jacquard has to be my favorite by far!! Was this the only design to use mesh jacquard? So very beautiful!For those who don't have 70cm vintage scarves or dip dyes (lookin' at you, fifi), don't forget that older scarves can be incredibly soft and some years seem softer than others. Multiple hand washings can soften scarves too.

Kimonos et Inros, washed many times to improve the color run on the yellow parts that even boiling water rinses didn't eliminate. (And the seller didn't mention it, either -- my fault for not noticing.)

Face au Large [2000] and Voyage au Long Cours [2001] both by Jarlegant and incredibly soft -- note that the years were sequential, so perhaps the sizing was light that year (or the pastel shades were softer).

Joining the collective in expressing my sadness for you! Crossing fingers that it’s not too late for you to open a case and be reimbursed. What a blessing that some knowledgeable Good Samaritan clued you in to the dupe.Fellow scarifies - I'm writing a little apology. I've been told that my Aux Pays de Epices is a fake, a pretty one, but a fake none the less. I've reported the posts to the mods and asked them to remove them so no one makes the same mistake I did in thinking it was an authentic Hermes scarf.
I'm so sorry and terribly embarrassed.![]()
My, my- that is a stunner!!Jaguar quetzal for today
Such lovelies!!Here are some mod shots. I usually do cowboy for the 70s, otherwise, bias fold and tied to one side.
Thank you! Oh this could be dangerous!! (As I squeal with excitement!This scarf is on 'Fish Scale' jacquard - Fauconnerie Royal Deduct and Romantique are on this jacquard too. It is beautiful.
The mesh jacquard has several scarfs - many of them are original issues like Mors et Gourmettes and Quai aux Fleurs.
(I found this information on the Hermesology site, but I also have FRD, M et G, and Q aux F in these patterns)
