Echec au Roi rectangle
Rectangle in cashmere and silk with hand-rolled and fringed edges (70% cashmere, 30% silk).
Printed and rolled like a scarf, this rectangle is perfect for a casual look.
Made in France
Designed by Benoît-Pierre Emery
Dimensions: 63 x 180 cm | As this rectangle is hand-rolled and hand-fringed, the dimensions indicated may vary.
The story behind
Sometimes called "horses", but more commonly known as "knights", these chess pieces have the unique ability, or perhaps noble duty, to leap over their enemies. As stylish as they were on the scarf produced in 2013, they have left their frame and joyfully galloped towards this new rectangle shape with its graphic composition. Whether it's head-to-head or head-to-tail, anything goes!
