Hermes silk twill scarf, hand-rolled, 36" x 36" (100% silk) Color : bright pink/green/blue
At the centre of La Marche du Zambeze, a majestic elephant symbolises family and power. Around him are gathered the creatures of his kingdom, the great river lands of the Zambezi: giraffe, zebra, leopard and crocodile trace its course from the savannah to the delta marshes. The river’s flora is silhouetted all around the composition, off-setting the rich patterns of python and crocodile skin. Ardmore is a collective of Zulu, Zimbabwean and Sotho artisan potters, founded by Fée Halsted in 1985, in Kwazulu Natal, South Africa. Today, the group numbers seventy members: creative artists dedicated to reinventing traditional styles, united by their recognition of what our common humanity and fraternity truly mean – namely that we each exist thanks to others. This carré marks the beginning of a new collaboration between the collective, and the house of Hermès.
