Elegant cursive script is integrated throughout the correspondence motifs, including the locations Paris and New York, and a signature reading Louis Cartier at the lower left. The scarf is finished with hand-rolled edges. A printed mark reads must de Cartier Paris. A sewn-in fabric label identifies the origin as France and the material as 100 percent silk, with care instructions in both French and English. Approximate dimensions: 34.5 inches by 34.5 inches.
