*A present from my parents and my favorite Carré *
I'm back in Singapore and I have to say it has been a pretty busy week so far!
First of all there was the opening of the first H&M store in Singapore, which i couldn't miss!, and secondly there was the Hermès craftsmen exhibition.
The exhibition lasted 5 days and I had the opportunity to discover the "making of" the most wonderful pieces of Hermès, from the iconic bags to the horse saddles and of course the Carré amongst many others.
In this post i am bringing you through the steps of the Silk Printer...
*The table where the magic happens*
*45 colors were used to make this Carré - 15 just for the face...impressive*
*First step: cutting the silk*
*Pouring the black dye to outline the drawing of the Carré*
*Spreading the dye*
*This is the result of the first layer of dye*
*10 different colors were used to produce Fleurs D' indiennes*
