Hermès Grèce 1821 Vintage Silk Scarf — Navy & Crimson (1981)

An extraordinary collector’s piece, this rare Hermès carré was issued in 1981 to commemorate the 160th anniversary of the Greek War of Independence. Produced in extremely limited quantities, it is almost never seen on the market today, making it one of the most sought-after Greek-themed Hermès designs.

This edition pairs a deep navy background with ivory accents and a burgundy border. The horsemen are rendered in earthy brown and chestnut tones, contrasted by white and crimson garments. Weapons and sashes shine in shimmering gold, fiery red, and silver-grey, creating one of the richest and most commanding looks of the collection.

Crafted on luxurious Hermès silk twill with the maison’s signature hand-rolled edges, this scarf represents both an investment-grade collectible and a wearable work of art.

Because of its rarity and historic theme, the Hermès “Grèce 1821” scarf often commands prices well above standard vintage Hermès carrés, with serious collectors valuing it as a museum-worthy treasure.
