Model History:<\/strong>
The Ali-Baba<\/em> square was designed by Pierre P\u00e9ron, one of Herm\u00e8s’ most emblematic artists, known for his ability to translate entire universes into the space of a scarf. Created in the 1990s, this model pays tribute to the legend of Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves, a key figure in oriental oral and literary tradition. This theme allows Herm\u00e8s to explore, once again, its attachment to narrative imagination and travel. With its graphic style reminiscent of Persian miniatures, Ali-Baba<\/em> follows in the tradition of Herm\u00e8s carr\u00e9s, where drawing becomes storytelling, and silk a medium for cultural transmission. Today, this model is one of the most sought-after editions for lovers of highly iconographic carr\u00e9s. <\/p>\n

Details:<\/strong>
The scarf features a classic structure with contrasting midnight-blue trim and neat hand-rolling. The Ali-Baba<\/em> title appears discreetly in the design, integrated into the upper frieze. The signature “Herm\u00e8s – Paris” is placed at the bottom of the square. The entire design is printed on a silk twill with subtle reflections and a soft feel. The colors, all in shades of blue, create a refined, balanced visual effect, making it easy to match this square with a wide range of outfits. <\/p>\n

The interior composition is exceptionally rich: riders, horses, bearded and turbaned figures follow one another with rhythm and variety, each embodying a figure from an imaginary oriental universe. Each character is meticulously illustrated, bringing depth and narrative to the whole. The dynamism of the scene is reinforced by the postures and crossed glances, creating a fluid visual movement across the square. <\/p>\n

Product Condition:<\/strong>
This model is in very good condition. The silk is supple, with no noticeable snags or stains, and retains its original sheen. The roulott\u00e9 is regular and the colors, still perfectly contrasted, show that it has been little worn and carefully preserved. <\/p>\n

Care instructions:<\/strong>
To preserve the intensity of the pigments and the integrity of the silk, we recommend that you take this square to a dry cleaner specializing in the treatment of old or delicate textiles. Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight or humidity, and store flat or rolled in a suitable box. <\/p>\n
