"CELINE" 90's-00's Vintage equestrian harness motif cotton handkerchief scarf

From CELINE, which began in Paris in 1945 and has pursued a minimalist aesthetic that blends French elegance with practicality, continuing to accompany women's daily lives across generations, we are pleased to present a rare and highly prized piece that embodies the refined lifestyle of that era.

"HARNAIS D'ATTELAGE" (carriage harness) is depicted together with a grand carriage drawn by three horses, intricate chains, and refined ribbon decorations across the surface in a classical balance, and the deep burgundy and ivory contrast coloring the outer edge lends an aristocratic mood to this practical item.

The high-quality 100% cotton textile has a matte, softly tactile finish that gently absorbs light, and the delicate layering of prints and the color reproduction accuracy achieved through skilled Japanese craftsmanship lend a striking presence when worn at the neckline or carried on a bag, enhancing a refined serenity in everyday gestures.

In the lower-right corner, a gold foil-stamped seal verifying official distribution through department stores of the era remains proudly, bearing the inscription "Manufactured in Tokyo Kawabe Co., Ltd.", quietly testifying to the background of Japan's high-quality craftsmanship before the termination of the license agreement in the late 2000s—a level of added value that is virtually irreproducible today.

With a light, airy feel that makes the most of the material's properties and a design that uses the traditional signature of harnesses, it functions beautifully not only as a handkerchief but also as a mini scarf; when tied loosely, its soft drape lends a dramatic nuance to the wearer's expression.

We especially recommend it to those who wish to infuse a classical look with vintage-era refinement, and to those seeking a quiet strength that lets the texture and pattern speak to their individuality; with a balance that is not overly dressy, it is an ideal piece for feeling the history of the maison Céline in daily life.

For styling, pairing it with a refined trench coat or a tailored navy blazer creates a beautiful contrast as the harness pattern peeks out from the collar of the outerwear, resulting in an impression that blends softness with inner strength and is suitable for any gender. Simply incorporating this piece into a minimalist ensemble—such as a classic white shirt and clean chinos—allows you to enjoy a seasonless, elegant style.

We invite you to take advantage of this opportunity.
