HERMES 45cm SILK SCARF - AU PAYS DES OISEAUX FLEURS
by CHRISTINE HENRY
NGL I love me a busy little gav. Ok, ok - busy is my jam in general (140s notwithstanding) but for gavs i love uber-busy. The floral scrolls and leaves here have a kind of paisley feel. I have two busy floral gavs by Christine Henry that I love to pair together. I could totally get into different colorways of this one.
From the Hermes Story Behind:
Like an allegory of life itself, Au Pays des Oiseaux Fleurs tells of the interconnections between fauna and flora. The delicate drawing transports us to a dreamlike land of trees, flowers and birds, mingling in rich profusion. No two trees are the same, each unfurls scrolling arabesques, decorative forms and flowers, an open invitation to the multicoloured birds snapping twigs to build their nests among the branches, feeding on blossoms, transporting fertile seeds and pollens. Plants and animals blend and blur in this composition celebrating the extraordinary richness of life on Earth - the intelligence, beauty and power of nature. No single thing can thrive, it seems to say, without all the rest.
