Fantastic, no wonder you love it!View attachment 3926575 View attachment 3926574 View attachment 3926573 View attachment 3926572 View attachment 3926571 View attachment 3926570 View attachment 3926562 Temps are down in Paradise so out come my cashmere sweaters and scarves worn comfortably with my jackets. Going vintage with Turqueries en l’Honneur de Monsieur de T 1948. I believe that the inspiration for this design was an actual “Turquish masquerade” organized by the French Academy and held in Rome in 1748 for the carnival celebrations. The director of the French Academy designed the costumes of contemporary European and Eastern personages and left a number of etchings. Please contribute any info that you may have for this design because I pored overnight historical records to draw this possible reference. Today is The Feast of the Epiphany and the costumed gentlemen en parade remind me of The Magi. Please allow me to indulge in the details. I love this scarf.
And my love of costuming to boot! It is like looking at a picture bookFantastic, no wonder you love it!

Wow, what rich colors. I miss some of the older designs/color palettes. I love my loud colors but there is just something so sophisticated about deep red and wines with royal blue and gold. And the level of detailing-- oh my! Thank you for sharing, fifi. H can be both fashionable and educational!View attachment 3926575 View attachment 3926574 View attachment 3926573 View attachment 3926572 View attachment 3926571 View attachment 3926570 View attachment 3926562 Temps are down in Paradise so out come my cashmere sweaters and scarves worn comfortably with jackets.

Yes, but for some reason I prefer the larger scarves in cashmere/silk. They are less slippery.Thank you Cookie!
Congrats on your lovely Lunapark, it's a rare dream.
Thank you bunny!
Maedi, thank you. You can get a 140 twill this season.

This is a gorgeous cw of this design. I think you got the history of the design right. There is a seller on the Bay who does a full background write-up on every scarf she puts up for auction. I remember she had this scarf maybe 3 or 4 years ago, and the story behind it was similar to yours.View attachment 3926575 View attachment 3926574 View attachment 3926573 View attachment 3926572 View attachment 3926571 View attachment 3926570 View attachment 3926562 Temps are down in Paradise so out come my cashmere sweaters and scarves worn comfortably with jackets.
