What an inspiring mother you have, Foxy! I, too, would keep both scarves if possible….

How christmassy, it is a wonderful cw!

This look is so elegant! Well done!

Incredible how the different cws give different vibes to these scarves!

How very true, Foxy - so which one will you keep?

You have the most wonderful holiday scarves, dear Karen!


You‘re getting right into the holiday spirit!

Beautifully paired!

I‘ll remember that quote, very helpful and enabling!
Thank you, Susie and @momasaurus. I adore my H silks but I must say that my little Echo holly beauty gets a workout, too. Not H but very soft and lovely silk and the colors are so festive.

Such a beautiful design that was not on my radar at all until this week. It looks lovely on you @Redbirdhermes.

:lol: You are so funny and nice @Nomad!

Thank you so much dear @Croisette7!

So so beautiful both @Cookiefiend but your Tapis Persans is :faint: such amazing colors together...
Thank you! I’m so happy with it, the colors are so beautiful!
Fabric art on Appaloosa des Steppes. Someone on tPF posted some fabric pictures a while back which made me love the design even more. Gavroche and 90 cm.View attachment 5276604View attachment 5276605View attachment 5276606View attachment 5276607
oh my - they’re beautiful, but the purples - I love!
grest sotd! is that a 90 moussie? Amazing colors in it. Love it
Hi Nomad! They’re both 140s ❤️
My sotd for last day of Christmas shopping. Joies D’hiver.
I wanted to highlight this lovely couple! I think with @Redbirdhermes post on ecosse and all the plaid talk about it after I HAD to highlight him :yes:

oh - Well done! And look at that ‘ice’! :love:
I love his work.. so dynamic, energetic and expressive! Beautiful example


Thanks so much! Yes, this is my sole CW of Pierres, though I’ve always wanted at least one more… perhaps one of the more colorful CWs


Love this design so much! Not only a charming illustration but such a lovely Christmas jacquard! A holiday favorite for sure


Oh, what a great post and lovely tribute to your dear mom, who was a leader and inspiration… Impossible to choose a CW as both are amazing


Such a lovely thing to say… I so appreciate it!


Love this dip dye hue


A magnificent design… Love this wonderful CW


A beautiful classic… I own the red, but this rich blue is lovely


Adore this CW… So wearable!


Wonderful CW of this beautiful classic


Both are such wonderful silks, and each so different… Must admit that Zabavushka is masterful and one I love to wear at this time of year as well… So glad you posted it! We have some things in common, one being that we are both Art Historians!


So great on you! I hardly wear this one but have been inspired by you and moma to do so more often


Both are wonderful… I’ve always thought that BdG Finesse shines as a moussie


It is a fabulous design in the style of traditional textiles of Kyrgyztan


A design that deserves multiples, IMO… You are so lucky to own two CWs! I am happy to be your twin on the first CW


Amazing knot highlighting that delightful skating couple


A magnificent silk!
Thank you sweetie! :hugs:
Wrapping up the week with a few more silks, beginning with Cent Plis des Miao, designed by Aline Honoré. This marvel of an illustration pictures a pleated skirt, the traditional costume of the Miao Minority people of China, viewed from above as it lays on stylized and geometric patterned textiles characteristic to this cultural group. Dancing ribbons and a silver horse amulet complete the still life. The Hermès catalog states, “This carre prompted a meeting with the Museum of Quai Branly in Paris. Offered by Hermes, the skirt now figures amongst its collections.“

Following pics of my 90 and CSGM, some photographs of Chinese Miao women wearing the traditional multi pleated skirts, a Miao pleated skirt and a silver horse amulet of the Miao people that resembles the one on the scarf.

Next is Animaux Solaires by Zoe Pauwels. The theme of this scarf is literally based on Tibetan mandalas from the 15th-16th centuries that represent a heliocentric universe where creation revolves around the solar force. A lion, horse, stag and eagle chase each other infinitely on a field with the sun at its core. Mandala is a Sanskrit word meaning “circle,” and, at the most basic level of appearance, that’s what a mandala is, a beautifully inscribed circle adorned with geometric patterns and digital forms. Before learning that its design was based on Tibetan mandalas, I thought it was inspired on medieval Insular illustrations such as those found in Gospel books like the legendary Book of Kells. I definitely see stylistic similarities between medieval illuminated manuscripts and sacred Tibetan mandalas in common characteristics such as the usage of geometric patterns, organic forms and highly dense, intricate decorative patterns.

After the scarf, a collage showing a Tibetan mandala and some examples of illuminated pages from the Irish Book of Kells and Lindisfarne Gospels

Zoe Pauwels designed Aube Libre Comme l’Ange as a tribute to the Japanese band l’Alfee and its 1977 music project by the same name. The design is in the style of graffiti art. Below, pics of the scarf followed by graffiti examples.

Rayures Mexicaines, or Mexican Stripes was only issued in mousseline form and consists of a series of multicolored stripes trimmed by a classic belt and buckles pattern. I do not know who designed it and would appreciate any information.

Following pictures of the scarf is an image of a Mexican woven blanket, or serape.

Thank you for allowing me to host this wonderful week on SOTD. It has been a great honor and pleasure to share some of my silks and to learn so much from everyone here
Thank you so much on the information on Cent Plis des Miao - you look incredible in it!
Beautiful icy blues!
Thank you so much, dear Karen!

What a stunning scarf, and so beautifully paired with that cosy neck warmer!!!

I am very sorry to hear about your loss, dear Redbirdhermes. How heartwarming that you have a scarf that gives you happy memories - and it is in the colour of love!


Not surprisingly I love tham all.

Beautifully paired with that sweater!

This is a design that tempts me too. (Ban Island, Ban Island…)
Thank you Susie! ❤️
Nomad and RBH, so very joyful JdHS!!!

Another wonderful Tapis Persan!

Dear Fifi, thank you so much for hosting this remarkable week. I learned so much from all of you, it was both educational and fun!!!
:hugs:
Sliding in under the wire with Ciels Byzantins. It might only just count as a cross-over scarf, since there is some red and green to be seen, plus the star design in the centre does have vibes of the Star of Bethlehem.
Perfect! This is my favorite cw of CB - that soft yellow is gorgeous, and the jacquard is delightful!
Well, yes, the upside down people are a downside of a circular design. At least they do not fall off the scarf. Beautiful!


I am sorry for your loss, dear Redbirdhermes!
Thank you for taking the time to point out all those details on this lovely scarf!





Dear Susie, I will share a tutorial on that knot that I call the Pierrot Collar knot as well as the pic of my Parade de Leonhardi flat that you requested.


You wear it so beautifully… It is a silken masterpiece


A timeless classic


Love the colors, too… that particular shade of slate-ish green is fabulous… and the red tartan! Perfect holiday scarf
Dear Fifi, I‘m looking forward to both the tutorial as well as the flat pic. :love:

You and many others here are so knowledgeable about our beloved scarves. Couldn‘t you and other sages give some kind of online lecture that a mere mortal like me could attend? While listening to that lecture I would be kept from looking for more scarves for a while and learn a lot, and both Mr. Susie as well as my credit card would appreciate that very very much! :tup:
[/QUOTE]
Please hang tight, dear Susie… I have a very busy week, but promise to share the tutorial and pic of Leonhardi… Your lovely comments are humbling, indeed


My dear Cookie, such a beautiful sentiment here… I am so deeply humbled and happy by your words


Haha! We ALL bow before Croisette and her vast and exquisite collection and long history as an H collector


Such sweet and valuable words… Thank you ever so much! Iris is a masterpiece and magnificent in all formats and CWs, but I must agree that is positively ethereal and sublime in mousseline form


A coveted design that is a work of art


Love the variety and amazing examples in this post… I need a Cirque Molier… Such a fabulous, dynamic, painterly design!


I am so glad that you posted about Ecosse as I plan to feature the design on my IG for Christmas and you have just made my work describing it a lot easier as I will take note of examples, if that is ok with you. It is an extraordinary design and beautiful in this CW


So fabulous! Truly a work or art… I regret not owning the 90 version


Love this scarf and the way you wear it… It is so painterly and almost reminds me of the movement and fluidity of Degas’ horses


Love this so much! You are so lucky to own these beauties
[/QUOTE]
Thank you for your kind remarks, LKBNOLA, Cookie, Nomad and Fifi! :flowers:


Yes, this captures the movements wonderfully - and love the yellow, Cookie! Here we have another grey and dark day, so badly needed!


You have extraordinary scarves, Fifi! Thank you for hosting a great week!


Perfect for your avatar name!


This mousseline is so beautiful!


Awesome, Nahreen!


You look definitely warm and cosy - lovely, LKBNOLA!





4 gorgeous ladies wearing those Joies d'hiver - fabulous!


Perfect with this brooch, Barbette, and a yellow hem!


Very festive reds, you look great, Pampelmuse!


Love seeing this Zabavushka on you, LKBNOLA!


Adorable outfit, Croisette!


so beautiful, Susie!

19 Dec 2021 Holly & Ivy: Festive Red and Green scarves

Happy Fourth Sunday of Advent, dear Scarfies!
As I will be attending my favorite Christmas concert this evening, I can’t help but to share the lyrics of an ancient tune that the marvelous ensemble Seraphic Fire will present tonight: The Holly and the Ivy:

“The holly and the ivy,
When they are both full grown,
Of all trees that are in the wood,
The holly bears the crown”

I couldn’t find a YouTube video of Seraphic Fire singing this beautiful Christmas song, but did find one of them singing the Coventry Carol which we will also hear tonight:



Here are a couple of photos of the last Seraphic Fire Christmas concert I attended in 2019 which includes a picture of the program. After last year’s hiatus, it will be a treat to attend tonight.

8D115CCA-772C-4387-8256-99387209E10E.jpeg

As we welcome the Christmas festivities with great joy and anticipation, we will undoubtedly wear our holiday-themed scarves to all of our events. There are so many wonderful and iconic winter and Christmas-themed silks by Hermès that we have a wealth of designs to choose from.

But, no doubt, we also have green and red scarves that we love to wear at this time of year for they are festive and have that holiday vibe, whether they are holiday-themed or not.
One of these scarves for me is Fleurs d’Ecosse in this red and green CW. The tartan patterns also add a festive vibe. Though not exactly a Christmas scarf it will be perfect to wear to tonight’s Christmas concert.

0CFF8EA5-DA22-4C12-90F7-B9C8CE0DB076.jpeg

Then, here is one of my favorite winter/holiday-themed scarves of all time: the charming Neige d’Antan with its delightful revelers in the snow and snowflakes and holly graphics.

21FBA91D-8D94-42FF-A583-5F005AC4AC87.jpeg

Finally, I would like to stretch the topic a bit to allow us to display those holiday and winter-themed scarves in our collections that we may own in a non-traditional CW. One such winter-themed scarf I own is the fabulous Fleurs d’Hiver. With its snowflakes, reindeer, edelweiss and woodland creatures in icy colors, it is a delight to wear at this time of year.

from back then in 2017:

I think I found out about the background of the scarf when I saw an Poster of the "World Nomad Games".
Look at these pictures: running horses, the pattern of the scarf can be found on clothing, yurts ans rugs:

Yes, honeylocks. Thank you for reminding me that it was you. Your info was the missing link for me.
@Maedi sisters with AdS. @HoneyLocks, what fascinating horsemanship. The wonderful textile art in Alice Shirley’s beloved design is the Shyrdak hand-made felt wool rug-making of the Kazakhs and Kyrgyz people. Your AdS varieties are fabulous, Maedi. Here are my two, both 90s but I wouldn’t kick if I found a gav. What a beautiful design!

I just shipped it back. It’s this one , plus it came with the heart shape orange box too.

This happened to me @Cooshcouture, during the pandemic. I called Customer Service and they made a note on my return so I had no problem. Good luck and let us know!
Utterly perfect and charming in every possible way. I love how you tied it with the two points @Croisette7!

Thank you dear @Living.la.vida.fifi for your beautiful closing post to last week's theme and this fantastic and festive post to open the new week! I love each of your examples-- they seem enduring, classic and joyful and I am glad of the expansion of the theme by the example of your beautiful blue Fleurs d'Hiver. Blue and silver are certainly festive and seasonal and for me they are also classic Hanukkah colors (though it has passed early this year). I feel these are all light-filled traditions in the dark mid-winter so I can't wait to see the cheer and fun this week.
Since I acquired this festive La Patisserie Francaise, I have my own little holiday tradition of wearing it to a Cookie Exchange. Finally doing that again this year IRL! Not technically red or green but full of sugary sweetness and whimsey. Plus, my top is very very green ;) (Knot is the "Zebra Bow Knot" by @Yoon daily scarf)

Thank you for hosting last week and this, @Living.la.vida.fifi . It was easy to find a crossover scarf for today that encompassed both art and was red. When I first saw a picture of Au Coin du Feu I thought that Hermès had actually issued a knit scarf. Even on opening the box I had to touch it to be sure that it was a picture of a knitted scarf on flat silk. Knitwear is of course an art form. I picture the scarf here with an actual knitted headband that I wear in the winter.

20211219_095158.jpg20211219_095306.jpg

Pleased to begin this week of Christmas with Au Coin du Feu with its reindeer pulling a present in a sleigh. With any luck I'll be able to post a scarf on site photo later after a visit to our cabin which has a fireplace.

Well, yes, the upside down people are a downside of a circular design. At least they do not fall off the scarf. Beautiful!


I am sorry for your loss, dear Redbirdhermes!

Awww, what a great and very fitting intro, dear Fifi! Thank you for taking the time to host another week, and the one before Christmas to boot. :hugs:
Your scarves are (as usual) so wonderful, all different, and all on theme. I am your twin on Neige d‘Antan, my favourite Christmas scarf, always worn on Christmas Eve. :girlsigh:

A very very nice green top with a very very lovely scarf, dear LKBNOLA! :loveeyes:
Thank you for hosting last week and this, @Living.la.vida.fifi . It was easy to find a crossover scarf for today that encompassed both art and was red. When I first saw a picture of Au Coin du Feu I thought that Hermès had actually issued a knit scarf. Even on opening the box I had to touch it to be sure that it was a picture of a knitted scarf on flat silk. Knitwear is of course an art form. I picture the scarf here with an actual knitted headband that I wear in the winter.

Pleased to begin this week of Christmas with Au Coin du Feu with its reindeer pulling a present in a sleigh. With any luck I'll be able to post a scarf on site photo later after a visit to our cabin which has a fireplace.

One of my favourite designs, RBH! I am your sister, I‘ve got the light blue/ light grey one. How very nice to see the red cw! :hugs:
 
19 Dec 2021 Holly & Ivy: Festive Red and Green scarves

Happy Fourth Sunday of Advent, dear Scarfies!
As I will be attending my favorite Christmas concert this evening, I can’t help but to share the lyrics of an ancient tune that the marvelous ensemble Seraphic Fire will present tonight: The Holly and the Ivy:

“The holly and the ivy,
When they are both full grown,
Of all trees that are in the wood,
The holly bears the crown”

I couldn’t find a YouTube video of Seraphic Fire singing this beautiful Christmas song, but did find one of them singing the Coventry Carol which we will also hear tonight:



Here are a couple of photos of the last Seraphic Fire Christmas concert I attended in 2019 which includes a picture of the program. After last year’s hiatus, it will be a treat to attend tonight.

As we welcome the Christmas festivities with great joy and anticipation, we will undoubtedly wear our holiday-themed scarves to all of our events. There are so many wonderful and iconic winter and Christmas-themed silks by Hermès that we have a wealth of designs to choose from.

But, no doubt, we also have green and red scarves that we love to wear at this time of year for they are festive and have that holiday vibe, whether they are holiday-themed or not.
One of these scarves for me is Fleurs d’Ecosse in this red and green CW. The tartan patterns also add a festive vibe. Though not exactly a Christmas scarf it will be perfect to wear to tonight’s Christmas concert.

Then, here is one of my favorite winter/holiday-themed scarves of all time: the charming Neige d’Antan with its delightful revelers in the snow and snowflakes and holly graphics.

Finally, I would like to stretch the topic a bit to allow us to display those holiday and winter-themed scarves in our collections that we may own in a non-traditional CW. One such winter-themed scarf I own is the fabulous Fleurs d’Hiver. With its snowflakes, reindeer, edelweiss and woodland creatures in icy colors, it is a delight to wear at this time of year.

I’d also like to share my Advent wreath

This will undoubtedly be an exciting and fun week as we all share our beloved holiday and winter-themed silks


BEEEEE YOOOO TEEEE FUL intro fifi! All of your winter themed scarves are fantastically tied, esp the Fleurs d'E !

Thank you dear @Living.la.vida.fifi for your beautiful closing post to last week's theme and this fantastic and festive post to open the new week! I love each of your examples-- they seem enduring, classic and joyful and I am glad of the expansion of the theme by the example of your beautiful blue Fleurs d'Hiver. Blue and silver are certainly festive and seasonal and for me they are also classic Hanukkah colors (though it has passed early this year). I feel these are all light-filled traditions in the dark mid-winter so I can't wait to see the cheer and fun this week.
Since I acquired this festive La Patisserie Francaise, I have my own little holiday tradition of wearing it to a Cookie Exchange. Finally doing that again this year IRL! Not technically red or green but full of sugary sweetness and whimsey. Plus, my top is very very green ;) (Knot is the "Zebra Bow Knot" by @Yoon daily scarf)

I missed most of last week, except for commenting a few times... :crybaby: I have no idea where the time went on me, but go it did....


So, I'm calling this one a crossover from last week since it has some green on it. :biggrin: But also, most Armore Artist scarf designs tend to be based on their ceramic art they sell, so it would have been great for last week too.

And, of course, it would not be Xmas-time without my black black heart embracing the Grinch for at least a day.

"You're a foul one, Mr Grinch.... You're a nasty-wasty skunk!" :lol: (plus... green...but a sickly mean green... :lol: )

PS- I still have no holiday themed or winter themed scarves, after 8 years....
