This is one in a series of four pieces (shown below), each representing a season and created using paillonné enamel, engraving and/or miniature painting. All are drawn from an Hermès silk scarf designed by artist Pierre Marie that depicts animals. Spring is a micro-painted horse surrounded by flowers rendered in lovely pale green. Prices range from $84,500 to $126,800. 12 pieces each.
