HERMES SCARVES CODE
The scarf may also feature a black label in the corner, however, these can fall off over the years or be removed by the wearer, but personally I NEVER look for these as this is the easiest part of the scarf to fake and you will be able to authenticate the item easier and more accurately by looking at other markers like the hand rolled edges and the print quality!

Some of these elements might be hard to spot and very old scarves may not feature both Hermes stamps, nor the title of the scarf into the design. Modern Hermes scarves will also feature the name of the scarf incorporated into the print.A subtle ‘HERMES©’ stamp, in block capitals, followed by the copyright stamp.
Look Out For the Hermes Branding & Artists NameĮvery Hermes scarf will feature a few key elements: Authentic Hermes scarves will have a visible texture, fake Hermes scarves will have a flatter, smoother and shinier texture. If you look closely, you will see the texture of the weave. Where as fake Hermes scarves might have a slightly shiny, satin-y finish to their scarves, maybe even with some metallic flecks, authentic Hermes scarves have a more matte surface and the lines of the silk twill are visible to the eye. Not only do they print and construct their own scarves, but they also loom the silk, which is why Hermes have the thickest, heaviest silk twill on the market. Hermes are one of the few brands (that I know of) who have their own scarf factory. It’s just not the same! Get 20% off at with the code ‘REAL’ Hand rolling is a very skilled process and it’s expensive to do, so it’s extremely rare a faux Hermes scarf will have a hand rolled edge.Ĭhanel silk scarves also feature hand rolled edges, however, some ‘Luxury’ brands charge similar prices for machine rolled edges and personally, I NEVER buy expensive scarves with machine edges. Also, the roll should be the same size and thickness the whole way round and never sit ‘wonky’ along the edge. If you look closely at the images, you should be able to see. Instead, the edge should be a tiny, beautiful rolled finish which has almost invisible hand-done stitches holding the roll in place. Similarly, if it’s rolled but you can see stitches which look like a machine, it’s not authentic.
If it is a flat edge with obvious machine stitching, it’s not real. Anyway! Let’s go! Hand Rolled Edgesįirst of all, and one of the BIGGEST giveaways of authenticity, is does the Hermes scarf have hand rolled edges? This is where the edge of the silk has literally been rolled and stitched by hand so create the perfect finish. Although products like the cashmere shawls don’t have hand rolled edges, nor are they made of densely weaved silk twill.
Also, this post focuses on the classic 90 x 90cm silk twill square scarves, however, a lot of the principles relate to the rest of the scarves.
