Parisian chic. Shimmering pure silk scarf featuring hues of blue, yellow, red, and green with an iconic chain link pattern. Signed Celine Paris.
The Blazon Chaîne motif was born in 1973 after founder Céline Vipiana’s car broke down near the Arc de Triomphe; captivated by the interlocking "C" pattern of the monument's surrounding iron chains, she gained official permission to adopt the design as the house emblem. This vintage piece celebrates that heritage, transforming a symbol of French pride into a timeless silk accessory.
Silk, 88 cm square
ABOUT THE DESIGNER
