The new Hermès collection, therefore, is all to be discovered and listened to, among sounds, lights and objects such as the papier-mâché chairs made by Lecce artisans, the white tablecloths woven with gold threads and the chiseled stone tables. Objects that reveal the meticulous work of the craftsman, the imprint of the hand, the texture of a raw and natural material.

Among the novelties of the collection, the Sillage armchair, a seat with an organic shape and generous dimensions, which offers us an intimate relationship with the material. Designed by the designers of Studio Mumbai, Sillage is made of wood covered with an innovative cellulose microfibre compound and varnished and painted by hand, one line after another.

A real technical feat, then, is the Sialk centerpiece, with the unmistakable Hermès monogram. A simple object yet with a very long genesis because it is born from a copper sheet then dyed with enamels applied to stencils that require different laying times and different firings, up to the final result: a great wealth of textures and chromatic contrasts played on the fusion of the different pigments on the raw material.

The new Hermès collection presented at FuoriSalone 2021 can be visited, by appointment, until 10 September. Registration here
