Authentic Hermes Sulfures silk scarf vintage

Description

Authentic Hermes Sulfures silk scarf vintage. Shipped with USPS First Class.
This scarf is titled “Sulfures” and was designed in 1979 by Caty Latham-Audibert. I’ve seen this design also called “Sulfures et Presse-Papiers” which translates to “Sulfides and Paper Weights”, which the artwork represents. The center motif is a very large view into a magnificent millefiori glass paper weight, and is surrounded by smaller globes, each displaying lovely little details.
I am amazed by the number of colors in this design, as well as the intricacy within each glass sculpture. In addition to flowers, there is a tiny horse, an elephant and different initials sprinkled throughout.
A scarf that experienced collectors are always on the look out for, but few novices are aware of is the “Sulfures Et Presse Papiers”. In 1979 Hermes created 500 of these for the Paperweight Collectors Association at the request of the founder Paul Jokelson. Designed by Cathy Latham the scarf depicts some paperweights from Jokelson’s personal collection including the very first one that he started his collection with. Aptly so that paperweight was purchased by him in France as he returned home after WWII.
