The Story Behind (as copied from the Hermès catalog): Designed by Catherine Baschet, this scarf makes an homage to kundan, a traditional Indian jewelry technique where gemstones are set into gold with delicate, handcrafted precision. At the center of the composition is a 19th-century Arya necklace, the kind of ornate piece once created for a princess. The result is a design that feels both regal and intricate. *Fun Trivia: The design was worn by Nicole Kidman in the movie “Grace of Monaco”.
