This just in: More coverage of the Hermès Festival of Crafts at the Bravern.

In this video you’ll see the silkscreen artisans wash color and texture over silk until a pattern emerges, and along with it, one of the brand’s iconic scarves. At the media preview, we were all in a zen-like trance as we watched the process. Not even the dull chemical aroma of the paint prompted us to move along.

I think part of it was the French accent.
