Thank you dear @Cookiefiend but this is not new! (although I do have a new-ish blue version :lol: 🐦)

This is truly fantabulous on the red and I love your "rosy knots" @paula24jen -- great lippie also!

Thank you @AnnaE! I would agree.... :hugs:

Congratulations @Maedi-- this is wonderful on you! That pink is so happy and cheerful and the center colors are lovely on this one as well. Great choice!

Thank you @LitGeek-- hard to say no to any bird scarf!

I love this whole look @cascade2021 but how on earth did you get a 140 to do this? Please share your magic secret!

What a lovely cw @darkstar66. This is a "birth year" design for me and while I was able to find one, it is not the cw I wish for so I am still in the hunt...

I bet you look great @silveredwings4 -- and I am eager to try this tie of yours!

Thank you dear @Croisette7. I have a bright blue also and am hoping to add a light pastel next...perhaps I will find your lovely mint one!

How gorgeous on this textured top @Croisette7! Thank you for the inspiration-- this is giving me ideas for my lovely Grand Apparat Forever with similar colors...
Thank you! ... yes, the birds are multiple worthy, hope you find a mint one soon.
Waiting for my car to the airport and I am already having a two scarf day! This morning I wore a cute Grand Tralala Gavroche for breakfast at my favorite pastry shop (it survived a very delicious Kouign-amman with key lime filling) followed by my GOTD (Ex Libris GT again!) for the flight home...

Both are marvellous ... your earrings are matching the Tralala border, lovely!
 
Thank you @Lellabelle, @Maedi, @redheaddem, @HermesEchidna, @LitGeek and @Croisette7 for the lexical love, the travel wishes, the pattern mixing encouragement and the lovely comments. So nice! As for my pattern-mixing-averse DH, he was not traveling avec moi so...while the cat is away, the mice will play, right?

This is a great outfit @Snausages! Classic and Edgy. Love it!

I so wish this summery cw would have been available in the US @Agrume! Love the color combo...

Your Fleurs de Montagne is so covetable to me @Jacq1! Be on your guard lest a white haired lady appear and quickly unwind it from your neck before vanishing without a trace! Sisters on the Rendez-vous 70!

Love seeing the new scarf ring in action @HermesEchidna-- it is especially well suited to this gorgeous Pavements!

This is such a lovely color on you @Jereni!


Lovely outfit (and love your CdC) @AnnaE. Also regarding all your posts of this week, I hope you are putting them into a folder and perhaps you can ever create a Gygkar Reference Thread or Ode Thread? It would be such a shame to not consolidate all this research so well illustrated with your examples. I am sure I am not alone in this wish!

Oh, me oh my! I get a case of travel-induced hives just reading this post @Teaforparrots! I hope things are sorted out and you can rustle up a scarf somewhere... Always love your Cheval Turc!

This sound like the loveliest possible way to spend an afternoon @Cookiefiend...
Thank you so much, LKBNOLA! Love your little Tralala!
Hello all! I'm nearing the end of my visit here in Rwanda and it has been absolutely amazing! Today a silverback gorilla stared straight into my soul. That feeling is unforgettable and indescribable. I've walked muddy trails at 10,000ft elevation, slipped and fell flat on my butt into a pile of stinging nettles, heard chimpanzees vocalizing all around me in the forest, shopped to support the local community, ate way too much because the food has been too good, taught two papermaking classes, and captured a few scarf wearings, including 2 newbies I picked up at the airport in Qatar.

Masks are to protect the gorillas from contracting diseases from humans. They are required! Here there is a youngster grooming one of the silverbacks. This completely made my day!

View attachment 6212106 Isn't he magnificent! He is staring directly into my soul. All of the gorillas in Rwanda are named, to signify their importance and their individuality. It also helps to keep track of them and aids in long term research. This beautiful male is Charles, one of the few with a non-Western name. The gorillas born in 2024 will be named next month in a huge celebration called Kwita Izina. It's really something!

I've missed you all and look forward to being back in the swing of things. One last hike here tomorrow - we are climbing to the top of a volcano - Mt Bisoke - for our 28th anniversary. 12,000-some feet!
Oh wow, what a priceless experience! I am so happy for you.
Lovely scarves, too, of course.

Thank you. It's very simple, 140 silk plume is very thin. I folded the scarf diagonally to make a strip and wrapped it around my neck, tying it at the back.

How fabulous @EtsyBoss! Thank you for sharing this incredible experience with us! Congratulations and looking forward to more travel stories when you return. Your new pieces are lovely including some none H draped with your Lanternes!!!

Thank you Ex Libris twin! Such a nice coincidence with the earrings-- I know you know how fun it is when your jewelry and your scarf can be such nice friends @Croisette7!
Thank you so much, LKBNOLA! Love your little Tralala!
Thank you @Agrume! I just fell so hard for the colors!
Haha, when I posted the pictures I thought that I can’t for the life of me recall how I tied them! :lol:
Looking spectacular as always!
Thank you @paula24jen. I was laughing about my head to toe tropical toile outfit looking like a 1980s leisure suit! But I love it anyway :lol:. I think (for @Jereni) that your first two knots are Cherry B's rosy knot? There may be a tutorial for it but that is what it looked like to me in case that helps!!!!
 
Hello,
There's a new heat wave rolling in with temperatures way over 30° C (~ 90° Fahrenheit), and it will be a long one too, the forecast says at least 7 days. This is exactly the right time for my third and last Hugo Grygkar scarf, Les Plaisirs du Froid, as it will surely cool me down, like some sort of AC around my neck. 😁 I bought it around 1992 at Hermès in Frankfurt and was and still am enchanted by the finesse of the design (including blanc matte overlay). Thank you so much, AnnaE, for this extensive, elaborate and super interesting study on Hugo Grygkar, a big applause and chapeau on your diligence and your many exquisite treasures!View attachment 6211917View attachment 6211919View attachment 6211920
The green in this beauty is so refreshing. Looks fabulous on you.

I am so so happy for you @EtsyBoss, I know this was a dream of yours. I had the chance to live the same experience last year, very moving. What a wonderful trip. Enjoy the climb tomorrow, so brave of you but I am sure it is going to be magnificent!!!

Thank you for sharing such a magnificent adventure with us. I cant imagine the emotions of being to close to gorillas!!
 
Hi, friends! Today, we are wrapping up the story. Hugo Grygkar published 6 designs in 1959 and 1 in 1960. As he sadly died in February 1959, I imagine most, if not all, of these were published posthumously (I am not sure how seasons worked back then)

1959:
À la gloire de la légion étrangère II
Floralies
Harnais de cérémonie
La volière des dames
Minéraux
Panache & Fantaisie


And in 1960, co-created with Colonel Margot of Cadre Noir in Saumur, Cadre Noir.

1959:

I actually have all of these but I have conveniently forgotten to take out both the À la gloire de la légion étrangère II and the Harnais de cérémonie. But I think all of you have seen enough Grygkar this week to last you for a while.

Floralies -- to compensate for forgetting the others, I managed to photograph two colorways of Floralies, one with the title and one without. Exciting stuff! Once again, I have no idea why there are two different versions. Did they want to A/B test things? Did they just want to confuse the collectors of the future?

IMG_2086.webpIMG_2087.webp

La volière des dames -- one more of the few Grygkar jacquards. Look at all these hummingbirds! Not sure why they are exclusively for the ladies, but I sure appreciate them. They must have gone through huge quantities of sugar water to keep those hummingbirds though.

IMG_2078.webp

Minéraux -- I love this scarf! Mine is a later reissue. It's really quite an amazing (and very contemporary) design. AND I have proof I do wear my scarves!!!

IMG_1906.webp

Panache & Fantaisie -- it's quite lovely. Re-issued several times.

IMG_2079.webp

1960:

Cadre Noir: As I mentioned during Equestrian Week, there are 4 'Big Four' riding schools in Europe, each with their own Hermes scarf:
  • Cadre Noir -- in Saumur, France -- 2 scarves: Saumur by Jacques Nam, 1938; Cadre Noir by Margot & Grygkar, 1960
  • Spanish Riding School -- in Vienna, Austria -- L'Ecole Espagnole de Vienne by Ledoux in 1967
  • Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art -- in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain -- Real Escuela Andaluza del Arte Ecuestre by Hubert de Watrigant, 1997.
  • Ecole Portugaise d'Arte Equestre -- an eponymous scarf by Philippe Dumas, 2006
As you can see, it took Hermès some time to complete the set, and Cadre Noir helped them get there. It wasn't strictly necessary since there was already Saumur, but that scarf is super rare (I would personally kill for one), so it was good they made this one.

IMG_2075.webp

As you can see, in this last year, Hugo Grygkar drew from his usual wide variety of inspiration: equestrian, ornithological, floral, and French history.

This completes our silky adventure in Grygkar-land. I started the week a bit early, so I am finishing a bit early as well. I will share some reflections tomorrow to wrap things up.

Both looks are sensational in how you’re picking up design details with your accessories. My mouth is watering reading about your dessert. Safe travels back.
