Stitching and Strolling by Mayuko Takeuchi, Kenjie Oikawa is a picture book that shares the joy of craftsmanship for children and adults alike.

Durability, quality, and transmission are values that have guided the creation of Hermès objects since 1837; values that Hermès aspires to share with the youngest generation. For this edition, Hermès has commissioned 100% ORANGE, the acclaimed creator duo known for their numerous picture and children's books. With their artisanal approach to graphic design and illustration, they have crafted a story that encapsulates the meaning of craftsmanship, aiming to pass on the essence of Hermès to the next generation.

The joyous story of Ostampo Stetetcchi expresses the Maison's unique artisanal savoir-faire through a delightful narrative:

As a craftsman skilfully masters tools and materials in a small saddlery shop, bringing creations to life, a dog enters with a special request. Gently and kindly, the craftsman works to fulfil the dog's earnest needs. With joy, the dog invites the craftsman for a walk, and as they stroll, they encounter animals of various kinds. A little bit of magic, combined with the craftsman's hands and tools, is all it takes to grant their wishes one by one. With perfectly crafted creations, the animals are delighted by this magic.
