The concept of an actual writing piece appealed to me instantly, and the colour combination - the predominant "ink" blue on a white background while the illustrations have a pale blue to match the darker hue - is fantastic.
This design comes as a gavroche (pocket square)-size, and anyone sporting it (whether a gentleman in the outer pocket of his jacket, or a lady around her neck, wrist or on her purse) will be the subject of a great many turning heads....
Thanks for presenting the gavroche - it is lovely indeed and unknown to me. I guess it is not in the shops this season, as a part of Hermes relaunch from previous seasons? At least, I have not heard about it. Best regards, Anna
ReplyDeleteThank you for taking the time to write, Anna, I'm delighted to hear from you. As far as I am aware, this is not a reissue for Fall/Winter (A/W) 2011. My understanding is that season's gavroche collection consists of:
ReplyDelete*Monsieur Montre;
*Madame Cuir;
*Dames de Coeur;
*Mots de Soie;
*Le Charmante au Animaux; and,
*The Year of the Dragon.
I succeeded to see pictures of all and in several colour combinations each, so I anticipate to review them in the very near future, so please check back regularly.
