Merry Go Round | Hermes
The exclusive hermes merry-go-round will take the clients on a luxuri-ous ride that would make them feel the love of the hermes products. The Hermes carousel gives the users an experience that would display the exaggerated Hermes elements, such as their famous horse sculp-ture and horse riding products. The horse’s saddles are made of high end leather with the exquisite Hermes bridle and horse blanket made with the finest cotton mixed with silk to create a softest feel of comfort to the user. Circular row after circular row, the clients would experience a playful yet luxurious journey.
It’s origin can be traced back to the “Jeu de bague”, 18th century merry-go-rounds inspired by medieval jousting. Carousels appeared as a fairground attraction in the second half of the 19th century, powered by men or donkeys before the invent of steam and electric engines. The ability to ride the horses on the merry-go-rounds made the crowds feel noble, as that privilege was generally reserved for soldiers and aristocrats.
Carousels were also a way to experience adventure, especially for children. Being on their own they had to give their ticket and also experience the fear and thrill of being pulled away from their parents, only to be reunited as the carousel turned around just a bit farther.
