ooh, AL - I was just looking at the cashmere version of Les Jardins d'Armenie on ebay - I'm Armenian, and feel like I'm obligated to own this...

Me, too! I have this is 3 colorways so far...

would my original issue turnadot (from 92) in blue and orange be considered rare? i know other people have it. i don't know what makes a rare scarf.

omg CB i adore that scarf! and it looks awesome tied!

Here's my scarf...there's a debate on the name..."Geishas" or "Japon" or "Japon sur fond noir"....depends on who you ask. I don't know, but I love it and it's rare.

I LOVE that one- it's also one of my grails! From what I've found through research, the Geisha was a special issue for Air France but I've also heard that they released a second issue with a diferent motiff called, les Japonaises
Here are some of the other colorways:

yes, I was told it only ever came in blue and black. I love the black!

Pete, who sold me the scarf, was told the name was "Japon", so "les Japonaises" may be correct? Another member of a scarf forum I'm on told me it was "Japonaise sur fond noir". But the colourway I have is the same as the one that's in the Air France S/E box you have pictured....GAH! Who knows?

Actually the whole scarf is a cartoon about Napoleon sending a letter to one of his generals, who was also his brother in law...anyway, the messenger has all these crazy mishaps and finally has to pass the letter off to a lady to deliver...

Kaboom!!

It was done in the style of political cartoons. I just love it!!
