Scarves Your Grail Scarf

[Bostonjetset]

Boston, you look great in these bright colors!

Thank you, dear Lanit!

WOW!!!! This is the first Tsubas I've seen in dark dramatic cw (and I've been hankering for one for a couple of years)

Suits you to a T, Bostonjetset

Why thank you! I tend to stay away from primary colors but the gold details sold me [and the great deal helped too!]. I'm sure you will find one; they pop up now and then on the Bay. Usually I see them in bizarre colorways but sometimes in more wearable ones as well.

I remember confiding to frou frou about my on HG scarf whilst striding up Bond Street. She had no doubt I'd find one but I must say I had plenty.

I've been waiting 6 years for one of these in good condition, and what do you know, 2 mint were available at once. Now I have bees in silver and gold and jacquards too

Nothing to hand 1804 but here they are with my 1901 alli/gold Mappin and Webb card holder, showing the different tones of the more neutral parts

These are SO fabulous! The bees are the best part I think...so cute.

So glad you found your HG- twins on the orange/green, and my second is a pastel combo. Love the jacquard-

BIN $ 200 for a TURANDOT? I've just got one pristine for $ 150 pristine cond.!

This is a joke, right Croisette?!?

Oh of course. I didn't mean 10-20% above retail, I meant 10-20% above what they would normally charge for it. Because they know it's a Grail. But not extortion level prices. As I said I know they serve a purpose and they help us. But there are limits.

Yes, not extortion level prices!!! Though I shamedly will admit that I can caved a time or two and paid a crazy high prices for a HG

I present my latest grail purchase. It was not in my preferred size or colorway but due to two barely noticeable spots I got it for a steal and could not pass it up. Some scarves I want simply for the pattern and this is one of them.

TSUBAS in 45cm gavroche
1991 issue in red, navy, green and gold.
I DO love how the animal motifs are done in gold so that was the deal maker.

Congrats Bostonjetset!! How wonderful...I adore the gold animals on it too. Well done

I love the dragons! Do you know if you are a year of the dragon baby?

Yes, the dragons are my favorite And, I was born in the year of the dragon. So, I guess I need this design now, too

I'm a Dragon! Gimme gimme. [emoji6]

It's fantastic, congrats! [emoji122]🏻

PS: still haven't seen any Anneau gavroches for Dog. Been looking. Maybe they've not gotten to it yet?

Yep, we are dragon twins! We both may need one Pirula

Up early, one of my grails listed. Purchased for a steal! Might take a while to get here from Japan.

Congratulations! You are still on a roll. Can't wait to see what it is....

 

[Greengoddess8]

Oh good! Thanks.

Clue: I don't think it's a super popular Grail but it appeals the little girl of the 70s that resides in me. And I only wanted a certain color way.

Hmmm I have a 70's girl inside me that is probably going to love this HG. I can't wait

As promised. TSUBAS in action today.

This looks wonderful on you Bostonjetset!

Les Girafes cashmere shawl from 2006 ( I think ) is my holy grail scarf

That is a good HG

+1. When they ship with EMS, I'll usually expect not more than 3 days till nirvana.



With that little pop of a bold color, it's a very sophisticated look!


This thread is so enabling. My saved search list on ebay is growing so fast and I'm buying way more that I can wear this past month.. I'll have to put on head scarf, turn scarves into bags, wrap them as tops, wear them as belts to justify growing the collection in such speed.. But, I'm definitely not complaining! :

Have we seen all your new HG scarves cavalla? Please share

Yippee papertiger!!!! I am so thrilled that you found two of your Napolean HG's. They are stunning...and, I so love the bees

Congratulation paper tiger. These are beautiful! Will you model them for us sometime?

Yes, please papertiger

 

[papertiger]

Papertiger Yes, I remember and here they are !
I hope we can repeat our stride down Bond Street soon !
These Napoleons are made for you , and I'm thrilled that they have arrived now at Christmas time.
Twins on the orange , I bought mine in the 90s whilst dashing through Harrods and I often get it out to drool over the details , bees ,line drawings….it's to me the most magnificent scarf Hermès have ever produced . I always tended to hide quite a bit of the border , but I need to get it out again because these days no orange is too orange .
I wore it a lot and have had it cleaned by Hermès a year or two ago as I didn't trust it not to colour-run being an older scarf and red/orange being notoriously tricky .
Since then it's been in its orange box and somewhat neglected.
I think the brown is incredible, still beautiful but less obviously glam , and so it will be an easy one to reach for .

Yay, so glad to be twins with you! I don't think there's a cw in this scarf I don't like but I love these, and they're so different to each other

Thank you for all the info and well as the wishes, sounds like I'll have to treat them very carefully, esp since H no longer do dry cleaning ush:

Definitely not. Sending good wishes to your friend.

They're beautiful! How wonderfully special! Congrats papertiger.

Thanks you Pirula

These are SO fabulous! The bees are the best part I think...so cute.

Thank you, I agree the bees are wonderful

Triplets with you and frou frou Glad to know I'm in such good company

Yippee papertiger!!!! I am so thrilled that you found two of your Napolean HG's. They are stunning...and, I so love the bees

Yes, please papertiger

Thank you Greengoddess. Before I found the orange I was pretty set on the navy border version (not sure which year) but unless it literally comes and stings me on the nose I think I'm done searching, I'm fine for Napoleons

This is probably a Grail for someone and a fair price. Coup de fouet. Blue

Beautiful scarf. I own a pristine one with red and blue colorway. Sometimes I get it out just to look at. I've never worn it, it somehow seems too formal for my lifestyle.

Thank you for posting this. I couldn't resist. It's mine.

I am on the floor about croisettes comments about turandot. croisette please tell us this was many years ago? Otherwise, :worthy::worthy::worthy:

Oh good!!! It was such a good price too. I almost bought it to have two to wear together. That would have been a new low for me.

scarf1 - it came up on aff.com awhile ago and I kicked myself for not being fast enough at $350. It was sold by the time I woke up that morning. And now I got it for an even better price thanks to PbP. The late bird gets the worm?

PbP - yes, buying two of the same cw as a backup or worn together is a common practice around here! No shame in doing so. do you know the method of folding two 90cms together for a 140cm effect? You could have done it! Now where have you posted lovely mod shots of yourself wearing this CdF? I want to see!

Have you noticed that now you are costing me a bundle? First J'aime mom carre and now this one?

 

[EmileH]

Pay backs my dear. I'm sure you cost me 10x as much. I do know the way of folding them together and had just tried it with my two different Jardin Anglais. Glad you saved me from falling down that rabbit hole for now.

I have a get better organized. I probably posted more on scarf of the day. Here are two I found on my phone. First from summer worn in my belt. Second trying it with my Chanel jacket.
