Hermès Daïmyo Princes du Soleil Levant Silk Square Scarf

Hermès scarf "Daïmyo princes du soleil levant"

Designer: Françoise faconnet

The daimyō were the lords of feudal Japan whose coats of arms often featured plants or animals. The crane symbolizes happiness and long life. Here, it is framed by ginkgo foliage and the crossing of samurai swords, instruments of combat and hara-kiri, thus representing the bravery and honor of the princes of the rising sun.
