I went straight to the Hermes website to find out more about this scarf. Here’s what they said:
It was in Mesopotamia that the first calendar was born, around the third millennium BC, followed by the signs of the zodiac. They segmented the sky into twelve sequences which the sun takes one year to pass through. Linked to the lunar cycle and particular planets in the galaxy, they inspired many beliefs and shaped our measurement of time. Here, Gianpaolo Pagni adds stamped motifs to an emblematic scarf designed in 1963 by Francoise Faconnet, inspired by a Renaissance-era astrological table conserved at the Musee de l'Observatoire in Paris. The Italian illustrator's geometric prints overlap with complex symbols which only the enlightened can decipher.
Very cool, y’all! In my research, I never came across this color. I saw blue and brown, but never fuchsia!
