Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What are the size and materials of this Hermès Carré 90? A: It is approximately 90 × 90 cm (about 34.8 inches) in 100% silk twill with hand-rolled edges. Because the hems are hand-finished, slight variations in the final measurements are normal.
Q: Who designed the Astres et Soleils motif and when was it first issued? A: Astres et Soleils is by Annie Faivre, a celebrated Hermès artist. The design was first issued in 1994 and is prized among vintage collectors.
Q: Is this scarf made in France? A: Yes. Hermès Carré 90 silk scarves are made in France, and this vintage piece carries a France origin label.
Q: How should I care for and store this silk scarf? A: Avoid contact with rain, water, perfume and cosmetics. Do not wash; entrust the scarf to a professional dry cleaner who understands hand-rolled hems. Store it flat and untied, away from direct sunlight, to preserve its colour and shape.
Q: Can I remove creases at home? A: We recommend professional pressing. Avoid steam and moisture directly on printed silk. If you must refresh it yourself, allow it to rest flat; persistent creases are best handled by a specialist dry cleaner.
Q: How can I wear a Carré 90? A: The 90 can be styled countless ways: folded as a neck scarf, headband or headscarf; as a belt; as a halter/bandeau-style top; or tied to a bag handle. A scarf ring designed for the 90 format can make knotting easier.
Q: What are the hallmarks of an authentic Hermès silk scarf? A: Look for finely printed, crisp artwork on silk twill; hand-rolled hems that roll toward the front (printed side) with neat, even stitching; the Hermès Paris marking; and often the artist’s signature within the design. This piece has been authenticated by A Retro Tale’s in-house experts using multi-point checks.
Q: Will the colours run or fade? A: Printed silk can be damaged by water and chemicals, which may cause colour migration or dullness. Keep the scarf away from rain and sprays, and opt for professional care only.
Q: Does this listing include a box or other accessories? A: No. This item is sold without accessories. Everything included is always listed under Accessories on this page; if an item isn’t listed there, it is not included.
