Hermès 'Kachinas' Silk Scarf by Kermit Oliver

This is a luxury Hermès silk twill scarf, titled 'Kachinas', designed by the renowned American artist Kermit Oliver. The scarf features a complex and vibrant print inspired by Native American Hopi culture, specifically depicting Kachina dolls and a central ceremonial scene. The color palette includes a rich black border, a vibrant yellow central medallion, and an array of turquoise, green, clay, and blue tones. This item is presented in its original Hermès orange 'boîte orange' with the 'HERMÈS 24, FAUBOURG SAINT-HONORÉ, PARIS' logo clearly visible on the inner lid. The scarf is square, likely the 90cm size, and appears to have hand-rolled and hand-stitched hem edges, which is a hallmark of Hermès craftsmanship. The text 'HERMÈS-PARIS' is visible at the bottom left within the design framework. The condition of the item appears excellent across the visible surface, with crisp folds indicating it has been stored professionally in its original box with tissue paper. No visible stains, snags, or thread pulls are apparent in the textile's surface. First designed in 1991, this particular piece represents high-quality silk screening and artistic collaboration, making it a highly collectible accessory in the secondary luxury market.
