DESIGN HISTORY (From Hermes Carre Stories):
"In Renaissance Italy, the collectors and patrons of the Medici, so admired stone marquetry that they dedicated several workshops to it. Some artisans labored for years on end to make a table top like the one that inspired this scarf. The passion for this art travelled abroad, particularly into England and France. A proliferation of flowers, fruit and foliage envelope multicolored birds, butterflies and insects, pearl necklaces, and ribbons in their sinuous curves. The delicacy of the line breathes life into plumage and petal, the plump berries issue an invitation... Life in all its fragile beauty runs through this mineral composition. Silk here takes the place of cut stones."
