Description : Before Salvatore Ferragamo was a fashion house, he was the shoemaker to Hollywood: Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe and Greta Garbo all wore his shoes. His Florentine house's silks carry the same storytelling. This vintage square shows a falconry scene: a horseman with his falcon in a sepia vignette, framed by a hooded falcon and a game bird in rose plumage, a gilded hunting horn and powder flask, and baroque ribbons, leaves and gold scrollwork, all edged in deep navy. Renaissance grandeur, ready to be knotted on a handbag or worn as a headscarf.
