Constructed from 100% silk twill with hand-rolled edges, the scarf is accompanied by its original red Cartier presentation box.

Cartier was founded in Paris in 1847 and has served as official jeweler to royalty across Europe. Must de Cartier pieces, introduced in 1973, carry the full design language of the Cartier house and have become a collecting category in their own right. Original packaging from Cartier is retained with this lot, which is the preferred configuration for collectors and is increasingly difficult to find with pieces of this age.
