Story about the Design: Cavalcadour is a quintessential Hermès equestrian composition of interlaced reins and tack. The motif features delicately worked fleur-de-lys buckles and the crown of France, inspired by the harness buckles worn by the horses of the Count of Chambord—elements drawn from the Émile Hermès collection. The design celebrates the house’s origins in fine saddlery and its enduring dialogue with royal equestrian codes.
Artist's Story: Henri d’Origny is one of Hermès’ most enduring creatives, active with the maison for decades and the author of many iconic motifs. Beyond silk, he conceived hallmark Hermès designs such as the Cape Cod watch and the celebrated scarf “Éperon d’Or,” emblematic of his refined equestrian vocabulary and graphic rigor.
