AN EXHIBITION dedicated to Hermès'
craftsmanship will open at London's Saatchi
Gallery from May 21 to 27. A selection of 10 different crafts
will be demonstrated live, as artisans show how they make the
luxury products in their workshops in France.
The week-long Festival de Métiers exhibition is
designed to "provide a fascinating insight into the traditions and
values of Hermès in the crafting of fine objects," allowing the
public to interact with the brand's craftspeople and see them at
work. Visitors will be able to see the house's famed silk scarves
being printed, as well as the creation of handbags, watches and
fine-jewellery.
The exhibition was previously held in Beijing
and Shenyang in China and, following its tenure in London, will
move on to Dusseldorf. Admission to the Festival de Métiers at the
Saatchi Gallery will be free of charge.
