Q: What does the 42 in the name mean? A: It refers to the scarf's approximate dimensions in centimetres. This piece measures about 42 x 42 cm, making it a compact Hermès silk square rather than a larger 70 or 90 cm carré.
Q: How can a 42 cm Hermès silk scarf be worn? A: A small-format scarf like this works especially well tied at the neck, in the hair or onto a handbag handle. It is best for neat, decorative styling rather than draping like a full shawl.
Q: Is slight variation in size normal on Hermès scarves? A: Yes. Because Hermès silk scarves are finished with hand-rolled edges, small variations in measurement can occur. That is normal and expected on this type of piece.
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 Carrés Volants design? A: Carrés Volants is a Hermès design by Pierre Marie. It is known for its playful, airborne scarf imagery and references to the house's silk universe, which gives the print a whimsical and collectible feel.
Q: What is this scarf made from? A: This piece is made from silk and features hand-rolled edges. According to the product information for this item, it is a vintage Hermès scarf made in France with a light blue, multicoloured Carrés Volants print.
Q: Is slight variation in size normal on Hermès scarves? A: Yes. Because Hermès silk scarves are finished with hand-rolled edges, small variations in measurement can occur. That is normal and expected on this type of piece.
