    I purchased the Hermes scarf PROVENCE in the early 90′s
    at the Hermes store on 57th St. in New York City.
    The color palatte of my scarf includes a cranberry
    red border with mosaic tile work of the design in olive, teal, grey,
    gold, camel ivory, black and rust red shades.
    Do you know what other color palettes this scarf
    was printed in (the 90′s version)?
    Thank you,
    Diana
