This, Vintage Framed Hermes Scarf "Arms of the United States" 1776-1976 Bicentennial Edition 90cm
This is a classic, collectible Hermes 100% silk twill scarf that features a central map of the United States framed by the official seals of the individual states.
Originally designed by iconic artist Hugo Grygkar in 1955, this specific red-bordered version was re-issued in 1976 to commemorate the U.S. Bicentennial, featuring a commemorative banner text reading "1776 - United States - 1976" along the bottom edge.
About the non existing artist signature.
You actually cannot find the artist's signature on this scarf because Hugo Grygkar never signed any of his creations.
He is widely considered one of Hermes' most prolific and iconic designers, often called the "father of the carre" but he famously chose to leave his artwork completely unsigned throughout his entire career.
The information you found online mentioning his signature is a common misconception; instead, the design is authenticated solely by
The "HERMES (C)" copyright text integrated into the lower border artwork.
The specific "1776 * UNITED STATES .
When a scarf has the , "HERMES - PARIS" and accompanied by the copyright symbol ((C)) it is the exact official formatting used by the brand on its classic silk carres.
The text you see on the fabric-typically spelled as "HERMES - PARIS (C)"-serves as the primary validation mark for an authentic vintage production run.
On this particular 1976 Bicentennial scarf, this lettering is neatly printed directly into the design rather than being an after-market addition.
This scarf was framed during the exact period that it was made.
The frame show some wear. as it is original to this piece.
Very good vintage condition, consistent with age and use.
