The story behind

The “Tressages Equestres” design adorns the hand-painted lacquer boxes. It draws its inspiration from the trimmings and braiding of harnesses, which are at the very heart of Hermès. The ever-present white highlights Virginie Jamin's designs. The bright colors of lemon and mint contrast with petrol blue and earthy tones. Three sizes of round tins and three tea tins echo the table service, for storing tea, sugar, dried fruit or cookies.
