FSH windows - part one

Every time I turn from the Place de la Concorde into the Rue Boissy d'Anglas it is with great anticipation.. will FSH's windows have new displays, or are they in process of re-decoration? On my last visit to Paris they were blocked with orange paper, but this time I could see from far away that new treasures were waiting to be discovered..

Window displays at the Hermès store in the rue Faubourg Saint-Honoré (FSH), January 2012




















Nuées imaginaires on the roof top, against a nuage-less sky ;)
There was so much opulence and detail that I am splitting this post into three parts. Part two coming tomorrow, hope you'll enjoy.

    The gorgeous opulence is almost other-worldly! Especially that silver saddle.

    Thank you for these pictures - Oh that saddle is amazing! I saw a tan one in the Bordeaux store last month, and stroked it lovingly... I can't imagine putting it on a horse somehow! Maybe it you're Charlotte Cashiraghi :) xxx

    Opulent is the right word and whilst droolworthy in their luxury, Iam drawn to the Balcons plates; I am far more comfortable with simple items.

    They will never be in my cupboards alas on account of children and my own clumsiness..
