Hermès Sangles Carré 90 Silk Twill Scarf, Striped Saddle Girths on White and Turquoise

The saddler’s workshop in stripes: girth straps in green, red, yellow and blue, hung in rows with their leather tabs and buckles.

The Piece

Sangles are the girths that hold a saddle in place, and Hermès began as a harness and saddle maker. The carré lines them up as if on the workshop wall, each strap woven in different stripes and finished with stitched leather and a buckle.

A turquoise and red border carries a HERMÈS-PARIS plate. It is cheerful, graphic and easy to tie.

A carré 90, cut from silk twill with hand-rolled edges, about 90 cm (35.4 in) square.
