Hermès Scarf “Impose ta chance” – Valérie Dawlat-Dumoulin, 2004
Issued in 2004, this Hermès scarf illustrates the famous aphorism by poet René Char:
“Impose your luck, seize your happiness, and go toward your risk. As they watch you, they will get used to it.”
Designed by Valérie Dawlat-Dumoulin, the composition shows a spiral of polished pebbles, each one carrying a letter or fragment of thought — an elegant metaphor for words shaped by time.
Set against a soft powder pink background with coral border, its tones of stone grey, amber, violet and lapis blue evoke both serenity and strength.
A rare and contemplative creation where poetry meets Hermès artistry.
