Well, this week’s theme could have been made for me! In recent years, I have enjoyed collecting H scarves with a theme of Ancient History because I studied this at University many years ago. I still haven’t found the designs in the right colours and price connected with Ancient Egypt and I am sure that there are some others too, but it has been a fun “journey” so far.

Clockwise from the larger image:
1) Persepolis - motifs from Ancient Persia.
2) Les Secrets de Minos - with the beautiful art work from Ancient Crete.
3) Musique des Dieux - instruments and patterns showing Ancient Greek musicians and dancers in the black figure vase style.
4) Promenade de Platon - showing Ancient Greek sport and my first ever H scarf. So beautifully described in the opening post by Fifi!
5) Mare Nostrum - this time the scarf uses art from the Ancient Roman Empire.
6) Escales Mediterranéenes - not strictly a scarf about the ancient world, but some buildings and motifs are used from the Ancient World, especially the vases on the four corners. My first Masters Degree looked at Ancient Greek furniture as depicted on these amazing vases!
By the way, all of these scarves and the rest of my small collection are described in more detail on my website - link below.
Finally, I would like to wish you all a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year! May you all, your families and friends have a wonderful time xxx
