Delivery & Returns
Q: What is the Hermès Carré 42 Bolduc Ribbon Silk Scarf? A: This is a vintage Hermès silk scarf in blue featuring the Bolduc ribbon pattern, a design inspired by the Maison’s signature gift ribbon. It is finished with hand-rolled edges and made in France.
Q: What size should I expect from a Carré 42 scarf? A: Carré 42 refers to a compact square scarf format. It is smaller than the classic large Hermès carré, making it especially easy to wear at the neck, in the hair, on the wrist or tied to a handbag.
Q: How can I style a small Hermès silk scarf like this? A: A scarf in this format is very versatile. It can be worn as a neat neck tie, a headband, a ponytail wrap, a wrist accent or tied around a bag handle for a polished finish.
Q: What is the scarf made from? A: According to the product information, this piece is made from silk. It also features the hand-rolled edges associated with Hermès silk scarves.
Q: Is this scarf vintage? A: Yes, this piece is listed as vintage. Vintage Hermès scarves are often sought after for their craftsmanship, collectible prints and timeless styling appeal.
Q: What condition is this scarf in? A: This item is listed in very good condition with light traces of use. That means it has been gently worn and remains well-presented overall, with minor signs of previous wear consistent with a vintage piece.
Q: Does this scarf come with anything included? A: Yes, a box is included with this item. For the most accurate overview of what is included, please refer to the product information on this page.
Q: How should I care for a vintage Hermès silk scarf? A: Silk is delicate, so it is best handled with clean, dry hands and stored flat or loosely folded away from direct sunlight, heat and moisture. Avoid spraying perfume directly onto the silk, and use a trusted specialist dry cleaner when cleaning is needed.
Q: Are hand-rolled edges important on a Hermès scarf? A: Yes, hand-rolled edges are a well-known detail of Hermès silk scarves. They are part of the scarf’s craftsmanship and character, and slight natural variation along the rolled edge can be normal on a handmade finish.
Q: How is authenticity handled for this item? A: At A Retro Tale, items are carefully vetted for authenticity before sale. If you would like extra reassurance about this specific piece, you can always contact the team for further details before purchasing.
