Hermès “Grands Fonds” Silk Scarf , Annie Faivre, 90cm, Collector’s Item

Dive into iconic Hermès artistry with this stunning Grands Fonds 100% silk carré, designed by the celebrated Annie Faivre. This design is one of the house’s most beloved marine-themed prints—featuring intricate tropical fish, coral, and underwater motifs wrapped in Faivre’s signature detailed line work. The vibrant ocean blue colorway is especially coveted, offering saturated jewel-tone depth and incredible visual impact whether worn, framed, or collected. The graphic fish medallions, rope border, and mosaic-style details make this one of Hermès’ most recognizable and collectible scarves. I had this framed for the past 20 years and recently moved and had it taken out of the frame and dry cleaned. Story about the Design: The Grands Fonds scarf showcases a captivating underwater fantasy with exotic fish and coral reefs, rendered in lush and colorful marine motifs. The design immerses the viewer into the rich biodiversity of the ocean, combining artistry with a poetic sense of exploration.
