Hello Silkies, I too must go back to look at all the beauties! MYH, love your pieces and honored to be twins several times.
I would like to share my Treasure Hunt find! This piece was made years before I even knew what Hermes was, but once I saw her on the forum, the search began. (Out of desperation, I bought the brown, neutral cw but she just didn't work for me and found a new, loving home.) It was absolute Providence that I found her and she came with a Jige from the same lovely seller. Thank you for letting me share my new shawl and bag (a reveal with my silk besties if you will...)

Don't you just love his nose? And those paws? His face is amazing and I know you will stare at him all weekend. Okay, enough drooling..... So happy for you.
Dear Silkies, I have digged in my closet and found 3 treasures for the weekly theme:
1. Saltmarsh, a special edition for the Savannah College
2. Les Ameriques
3. the wonderful Kermit/Kleeberg edition (here is a nice story behind: during my vacation to Paris a
have met a lovely lady from Dallas, who has offered the favour to organize this one for me
because it is not available in Europe. I am very thankful she did it and I love it so much.
Thanks for complement on my TR. I also just started. Your one week worth of collection is more impressive than my entire one 😋 What is the name of the scarf second from the right? It has a Chinese character on it. I would love to see the whole scarf if you don't have the name. TIA!
I'm popping in to say 
everybody
It's been a huge treat to see what everyone's precious hard won finds have been (or still are). It spurred me on to post this week because I only have them thanks mainly to my tPF scarf friends on this thread
Like lanit's amazing Watrigant mousse, 2 of mine were also Hubert de Watigant's but Le Carnaval de Venise and Dans les Branches de l'ombu. I saw Carnaval on this thread and was more bowled over than prob. any other at first sight, and the tPFer that helped me acquire it I'll always connect with Carnevale di Venezia, it was fitting we saw an exhibition on Diaghilev together (I also still have to find a Ballets Russes)
The other one I really wanted and could handily find a picture of was The Original New Orleans Creole Jazz 1923. Strangely my mother wouldn't give me hers
....but wait for it *jazz drum roll* she found another she liked the cw better and gave me her original if I swapped something with her that I can't even remember, I certainly got the best of the deal 
I almost missed out on Zaba, but due to a last minute life or death speech in my H secured my fave cw (albeit with lip gloss on) and then went on to find a pink too. And yet another almost miss was La Grande Tenue issued for the Queen's Diamond Jubilee. I saw it at a the Windsor Horse Show and thought
changed my mind and had to dance around H whist an Australian tourist worried about whether or not she was a 'pink person' with the last one in London. Then she said something about thinking it over so I said "You'd better buy it because if you don't I will". She laughed and gave it me 
I shall be back to comment, England is playing Italy for the World Cup (football/soccer) I'm sure you understand

I feel as though I'm showing the same scarves over and over each week:
1. I tried purchasing the Comme des Garcons/Hermes collaborative scarf at the CDG in NYC, but they were sold out. I finally found it at Dover Street Market in London and ordered it online.
2. Thanks to great intel from a TPFer, I phoned the H boutique in Dallas for the Caesar Kleberg Kermit Oliver scarf. I believe it was only sold in Texas.
3. After looking for the right colorway for months, I found this Kermit Oliver Mythologies des Hommes on eBay!
4. I had been looking on eBay for Tresor Royal du Benin, never worn, still in the box. I finally found it a couple of months ago!
