Brief creation story
The story, in brief
This note has its own sources and limits. The inherited catalogue metadata elsewhere on this page remains provisional.
The accessories of a dog’s everyday life become material for a silk design in Colliers et Laisses pour Chiens. Daiske Nomura draws on collars and leashes preserved in the Émile Hermès collection and represented in illustrated catalogues. Hermès describes his approach through the details of leather, bells and studs, treated with humour and fantasy. The shift from a practical accessory to an ornament for its human wearer is central to the pleasure of the idea.[1]
The house places these objects within a longer history, saying that it offered accessories for dogs from the 1890s. It also tells a deliberately tentative story: perhaps a client’s admiration of studded collars in a Faubourg window led to a suggestion, in 1927, to make belts from them. That possible encounter should remain an anecdote attributed to Hermès, rather than a scene reconstructed as historical certainty.[1]
The recorded reference H004391S 02 is a French-made silk-twill carré 90 with hand-rolled edges. Hermès Belgium lists Vermillon / Vert Sapin / Multicolore and approximate dimensions of 88.5 by 88.5 centimeters for this particular version.[1]
