I found a Prune Turandot in excellent condition at a reasonable price. I never wear it and it is my only Holy Grail 90 carre. I tend to like silks with Chinese or Japanese motifs.

Periogirl - please show us this prune turandot! I would love to lay my eyes on it. A reissue would probably cause a stampede to the H boutiques.

I will do it tomorrow morning so the light is better. I totally agree, I would re-purchase any reissue of this especially in a GM! My 90 is not the original first issue though.

Thank you! It's so beautiful. Is the yellow more of a chartreuse or a yellow lemon on the border? What a great score especially since you didn't pay an arm and leg.

You are welcome, receiving this was like receiving a Grail bag! I guess I paid an arm but not a leg for it. :D The border is more Chartreuse IRL. Not a colour I normally wear either.

Escargots is on my list too!! It's still on the Bay now and then but always at a markup...not worth a markup to me for a newer scarf that is not so rare.

Happy you revived this BJS! I have been very, very naughty and have acquired most of my "grails", which is why I'm on Ban Island indefinitely, so I don't have many left, really only one:

Coupons Indiens. 90 carre. In either cw 04, or 01.

I also love the C'est la Fete in the Nuit/Gris/Prune cw, but I don't think I will ever bring myself to paying the prices people are asking for it. But, you never know! :graucho:

But Coupons will be next. Whenever "next" is. :tender:

You are welcome! I created a new thread because this was from 2012 but the mods combined them. Not an issue as here it is again! :)

I'm surprised that it fell off the radar for so long. I find it quite interesting to hear about others' grails [and see pictures when possible! haha]

C'est la Fete is the ultimate H scarf for me. I will have it one of these days. The Nuit/Gris/Prune is my fave as well!!

Ok this is the best I could do with the light. The border is a dark Prune and most accurate in the second pic.

We all have those H scarves in our mind that we consider to be THE ONE [or two or five] must have piece for our collection. I thought it would be fun to open up a thread for all the scarfies on here to discuss what scarves of yesteryear we are constantly on the hunt for or wishing & hoping H will re-issue. We all have different tastes in silks and it will be cool to see what makes others' go nuts in terms of patterns/colors/themes.

I have a few on my list but have yet to find the perfect combo of colorway/condition/price to scoop them up yet, especially when each new season brings more must-haves. I will list mine below. What are YOUR grails?

1. C'est la Fete
2. Siam
3. En Avant Toute [QM2 edition]
4. Daimyo
5. Turandot

You are brilliant to start this thread again Bostonjetset!!! I never saw it before....I will post my long list later;). I found my C'est la Fete abou 6 months ago!!! It was well worth the wait!!!! I so wish H would re issue this design. I think it is might be my favorite:graucho: Turnadot is on my list too;)

You should get the hanging kit and display it if you don't wear it.

Hello dear scarfies, I gave you miss information about my C'est. I am going to blame it on the Chartrues/prune Turnadot. Seeing pictures of it made me heady...and I forgot which C'est I bought:laugh:

Mine is KAKI /PRUN/NOISETTE.Sorry for the confusion. But, I would love to add the nuit/Gris/prune someday;)

Thanks greengoddess! Well, I didn't really have that many true grails to begin with, only 4, so it wasn't too terribly hard. And not all that crazy expensive either, until the last one. :sweatdrop:

I'm SO glad you have that cw of C'est la Fete! I can't wait to see your picture! Boy, I have excellent taste if I can hang around you two.
