Hermes.com > The Story Behind

During the reign of Franz Joseph I of Austria (1848-1916), the Royal Hungarian Bodyguard was responsible for the security of the emperor and provided his escort. Their mounts wore a ceremonial harness with gleaming buckles, such as this bridle that unfolds its colored leather straps. The floral motifs were inspired by paintings on wood by the German decorative artist Moritz Meurer that are preserved in the Emile Hermès collection. By naming the design Grand Tralala, Virginie Jamin reinvents the spirit of the emblematic equestrian designs of Hermès.
