Hermes Silk Pelican and Fish Motif Necktie - A men's necktie by Hermes Paris, crafted in France from 100% silk. The piece features a whimsical repeating animal motif depicting pelicans perched on wooden pilings, accented by water ripples and jumping fish. The pattern is rendered in shades of sage green, golden yellow, and burnt orange against a classic navy blue ground. The reverse includes the signature Hermes horse and carriage logo label, while the interior tail features the silk care label and serial number 7533 IA. Approximately 58 inches in length and 3.5 inches in width. The Hermes Pelican and Fish motif necktie is an example of the house working with coastal and maritime wildlife rather than its more usual equestrian subjects - the pelican and fish combination brings a Mediterranean warmth and informality to the Hermes silk format that makes it one of the more summery and relaxed ties in the range. Wildlife Hermes accessories outside the equestrian tradition are particularly appreciated by collectors who want the house's quality without its conventional imagery.
