Hermès Grèce 1821 Vintage Silk Scarf — Royal Blue & Red (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 striking edition showcases a royal blue and crimson-red background framed by a green border. The central figures on horseback are depicted in golden tan and ivory, with white and yellow garments. Decorative arms and sashes gleam in bright gold, emerald green, and steel-grey, creating one of the most vivid and regal colorways of the “Grèce 1821” design.

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.
