The Story Behind (as copied from the Hermès Autumn Winter 2002 Carre catalog): This is the famous Persian legend from the 12th century. The princess is very demanding. She desires a husband who will be at the same time handsome, brave and spirited. The winner of the ensuing contest then takes his place by her in the center of the scarf, from where he reigns over China, helped by the Dragon, that imperial beast; the Phoenix, the Empress’s mascot; the Lion, guarantor of success; and the Tortoise, champion of what lasts.
