    This was 1 of a box of Hermes scarves found in a storage unit won at auction. I was told here that it is called pleated scarf because of the accordion like shape.

    I finally got around to stretching it out while looking for the Hermes name (I found that!) and saw the scene for the first time; it's a dead rabbit and dead fowl (birds)!

    Does anybody know about this one? Woman wear this one?!
    It was a surprise when I saw it opened up! (So much I forgot to measure it!!)

    Very cool, @journeymagazine if authentic - Debora will probably know.... Looks like 1st Dibs sold one, but I can't access sold price...

    I just wanted you to see how scarves like this were worn or styled back in the day :)

    I don't know if yours is authentic...

    Authentic Hermes plisse IMO.

    Agree. Correct logo, fabric looks fine, hand-sewn hem rolled upward. It should be signed Henri de Linares. Design is called Gibiers. First issued 1966 as a carré. The plissés weren't introduced until 1980 so won't be older than that. (They've since been discontinued.)

    Um... @Debora

    Whats the difference between a carré (square) and plissé?

    Is journey's signed Henri de Linares?

    Design is called Gibiers "game"

    A carré is a square and a plissé has accordian pleats. Does appear to be signed but hard to see in photo. Here's one in a different colorway which will help locate placement.

    Looks like journey's might be signed.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    The signature looks like it could say H d Linares, which is the signature on the one that Debora showed as an example.
