Well, Wednesday was certainly chaotic, scary and depressing, so the FedEx guy with an Hermes delivery this afternoon was a much needed diversion. Les Artisans in color 10 arrived, and I haven’t seen a more enchanting design in many years. The details are amazing, and the artist managed to include scenes of most of the Hermes metiers and give them a lovely exotic twist.

Favorite scenes include the FSH store with a Japanese facade, the Eiffel Tower behind it and “scarf man” flying his H scarf banners from the roof. And there’s a charming scene of the interior of the Hermes museum with objects I actually remember seeing there.

Then you have a scene of the leather workers laying out the pattern for a saddle, stitching and finishing it, with a proud artisan holding up a completed saddle. In the next scene, an artist is etching a scarf design with three ladies working on the coloration while a tiny cat on the roof catches the sun . And, then everyone goes out
to the garden for a tea break and lunch!

In the Lyon scene, you see them mixing the dyes, along with the scarf printing production line. We move along to the rolliteuse stitching the hems, and finally a reverential artisan holds up a finished scarf, which is Les Artisans in miniature. Annie Faivre’s little monkey even makes an appearance in one scene!

The Samourais in the center design is dashing and the Japanese maiden riding the horse/motorcycle is beautifully depicted and lovely. Wasn’t sure how I’d feel about that horse, but he’s beautiful and the “innards” of the cycle show another depiction of FSH, which the artist must feel is the true heart of Hermes.

I wish I could read the Japanese calligraphy, but I figure that it must be the title of the scarf, and perhaps, one of the chops is the artist’s signature?

Sorry to gush on and on, but I think this is a real tour de force of a scarf, one that doesn’t come along every day. It’s truly Hermes at its fanciful best. And, it should tie like a dream. Thank you for indulging me. I haven’t been this excited about a scarf in years!

I should add that the colors are pretty much as depicted. Photos were taken indoors in late afternoon light, so some of pictures are a bit more subdued than in “real life.” Personally, I don’t think you could miss with any of the colors. They all look lovely and wearable. Of course, I want more . . . one just isn’t enough, not in this magical design.

Thank you for pointing out all the details! I had not noticed the ‘innards’ being FSH! ❤️

A few more new ones
Fantaisie Botanique 45 CW 04

Are these two? Or how did you achieve all that volume?

Yes, It is two, tied behind my neck. Then a little scarf ring. It has so much poof because you don’t need to fold the scarves to put around your neck like you have to do with the 90’s

I tried the yellow Plumes, which the SA talked me out of because I was already getting a yellow Twilly. But I'm still mulling that one over... I love love love bright yellow and feel like this cw would go with so many outfits. What say you, commentariat?

The yellow looks fabulous!

I actually ordered the Plumes En Fete in yellow and picked it up yesterday. I like it a lot - bright yellow plus some pink. I would go for it

Plumes is ( again IMHO) a much more elegant and artistically laid out design, so for me its a no brainer. It ties beautifully in your photo, and everyone else who has modeled it on this forum looks awesome. (Non disclosure- I don't own it!)
If you love love love yellow and it would go with lots in your wardrobe- again, no brainer.

Get the yellow Plumes, it's amazing. Who cares if you already have the yellow twilly? GET the yellow plumes already

I second this @ajaxbreaker. I picked up two more color ways of Plumes yesterday. The marron and the red. I got the yellow last month after seeing it on @Cookiefiend. It’s gorgeous and has this magic quality where it matches with pretty much everything. In my opinion the yellow twilly and the yellow plumes are not the same thing and can serve different functions. Please let us know what you decide! ❤️

Girl - if you love the bright yellow - get the bright yellow!
(I love mine - such a happy color! )

As far as Plumes, I love it in every single CW. I have the white but would like to also own one of the other more colorful CWs as well. The yellow is magnificent!

Dear @ajaxbreaker the yellow Plumes is gorgeous on you! It is an elegant design, and completely different from the yellow Jungle Love twilly. Purchase and enjoy!

Well, never let it be said that I don't listen to good advice, because I have purchased the yellow Plumes today after seeing it on Saturday I know I'm twins with @Cookiefiend plus one or two other people. To be honest I didn't like this design flat when I saw it online. But seeing it in person, all the details on the feathers are magnificent and I love it now. Unfortunately the lighting in my pictures washes out the yellow a bit, but it is the most brilliant shade and I adore it. I'm so happy with this purchase Plus the scarf goes with absolutely everything I own! Case in point:

Thanks to you, I have #4 coming by mail from Atlanta (Herb).and I didn’t think I would ever want it!!

Well, Winter, we’re more than cousins then - mine came from Atlanta, too. Really the only reason I hated moving from Atlanta to North Carolina was the lack of an H store!

Looking forward to seeing cw 4. Congratulations!

 

[lilyhernes]

Can't wait to be scarf cousins! I don't remember the number, but I was waiting for the bright colorway with the fuchsia/orange/blue to come back on line.

That’s a beautiful cw, too! You should have both . . . so should I.

 

[akakai]

Apologies for my crappy photos but wanted to share Le A in Cw8! I love the bright colors!

 

[tlamdang08]

It is raining and raining over here since days.
No chance to do some outdoor mod shots with Les Artisans in CW 04.
I decided to take these pictures instead today for the moment.
Hope these are okay to post.

Thank you for the pictures. I am waiting for this CW but seems like it never reach to my store

Bravo

Congratulations, you wear it soooo well.

I don't have the yellow background but I have another 2 cws (both with a white background) that I just couldn't leave in the store. I so agree with you too - there's no bad corner, no way of wearing this scarf that isn't beautiful. this scarf design is a work of art flat and tied, from a distance and close up.

 

[bunnycat]

I have that one bunnycat and it is sooo gorgeous! You will love it.

We'll see in a couple of days!

 

[bunnycat]

That’s a beautiful cw, too! You should have both . . . so should I.

I'm already breaking my ban by getting the one! I sincerely hope it is the RIGHT one for me. The fuchsia/orange or the pink/yellow really are the only 2 possibilities that might work on my coloring.

So happy you got it- its an amazing design and the colorway looks fab on you. I am now officially tempted by this scarf!
