L’Or des Chefs, the Gold of the Chiefs, was designed by Joachim Metz and issued in 1997. It is in my opinion a very underrated carre.

Joachim Metz, who is responsible for a number of fabulous carres, packs so much detail and interest into his 90cm squares.

Same is true for this design!

As you may have discovered yourself, not all designs lend themselves to being tied in many different ways, the l’Or des Chefs, however, allows you to be very creative.

Be it a casual draping over the shoulder fastened with a scarf ring or a fancier knot like the Collerette, the l’Or des Chefs will allow you to create many different looks!
