HERMES silk scarf

A legendary design that pays tribute to the intricate artistry of 18th-century goldsmiths and locksmiths. The composition radiates from a central 18th-century purse—an archival treasure from the Hermès collection—surrounded by 47 authentic antique keys. Each key tells a story of security and status, featuring historical replicas including the key to Notre Dame and a governor's personal key.
