Description from the seller
Hermès “Napoléon” Jacquard Silk Scarf, Carré 90, design by Philippe Ledoux
This vintage Hermès carré is dedicated to the Napoleonic era. The composition shows crossed sabers, ceremonial uniforms, the bicorne hat, eagle standards and the chain of an imperial order. Historical vignettes in laurel wreaths surround a central monochrome scene of an imperial carriage, and the title cartouche “Napoléon” is printed at the top.
The scarf is made in the jacquard silk version, with the imperial bee motif woven into the fabric itself rather than printed. The weave is clearly visible on the pale border and the cream ground. This colorway is soft and refined: a pale aqua-green border, cream ground, yellow and light blue uniforms, with gold and brown details.
The design is signed LEDOUX, and the Hermès Paris lettering and Hermès mark are printed within the design.
