“CORRESPONDANCE HERMÈS-PARIS” SCARF IN CASHMERE AND SILK

(100CM)

Artist Jin Kwon reimagines big-city metro lines on this carré, mapping out stations denoted in the form of a cherished Hermès motif – the Chaîne d’ancre links, born in 1938 when the late Hermès CEO Robert Dumas drew inspiration from a ship anchor for his bracelet design. But that’s not all, look closer... Can you find all the letters of the “Hermès” name hidden in the metro lines?

FUN FACT Jin also conceived the bottle design of the limited-edition Terre d’hermès fragrance. She succinctly expressed the scent’s warmth and density of woody notes, the softness of benzoin and the radiance of shiso, with simple, yet powerful, vertical lines symbolising rays of sunlight.
