Perfect for autumn soirées or a winter theatre night, this vintage Hermès cashmere‑silk carré lends warmth and elegance, its black, multicoloured Kosmima Les Folies d’Eugénie motif elevating any look. Drape over a little black dress for evening polish, or knot as a cosy travel wrap to refine airport‑to‑city outfits.
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 is the Hermès 140 cashmere–silk carré on this listing? A: It is a large square Hermès shawl (often called a Châle 140) measuring approximately 140 x 140 cm. This vintage piece features the black, multicoloured “Kosmima” motif with hand‑rolled edges and a soft cashmere–silk blend.
Q: Is this scarf vintage and what does “Kosmima” refer to? A: Yes, it is described as vintage. “Kosmima” is a Hermès design inspired by jewellery and classical ornament, rendered here in a rich, multicoloured palette on a black ground.
Q: How can I style a 140 cm Hermès shawl? A: The 140 is versatile: drape it over the shoulders as a shawl, fold on the bias and knot at the neck, wrap once or twice for warmth, belt it as a light cape, wear it as a headscarf, or tie it around the body as a chic travel wrap.
Q: Is it unisex? A: Absolutely. Hermès scarves and shawls are timeless, gender‑neutral pieces that can be styled across wardrobes and seasons.
Q: What is the material and how should I care for it? A: It is a cashmere–silk blend. We recommend professional dry cleaning only. Avoid contact with rain, water, perfume, and hairspray; store flat or loosely rolled, away from direct sunlight and humidity.
Q: Will the cashmere–silk blend pill with wear? A: Some gentle pilling is normal over time due to the cashmere content. Minimise abrasion and, if needed, carefully de‑pill with a very soft cashmere comb, using light strokes and sparingly.
Q: Is the scarf reversible? A: No. While the print is visible on both sides, Hermès 140 shawls are designed to be worn with the main design side facing outward and are not constructed as reversible items.
Q: How is authenticity verified and will it have a serial number or authenticity card? A: Hermès scarves typically feature crisp printing, the “Hermès – Paris” signature within the design, an artist’s signature on many motifs, and hand‑rolled hems that curve toward the front. Scarves do not have serial numbers or authenticity cards. A Retro Tale conducts rigorous multi‑point authentication on every item.
Q: What is included with this pre‑owned piece? A: This listing is delivered with no accessories (no original box or dust bag). Please review the photos and the Accessories section for the exact inclusions.
Q: Where is it made and what is the condition? A: The country of origin label indicates France. The item is in Very Good condition with a light trace of use; please consult the detailed photos and condition notes before purchase.
