Simonnot-Godard: The Most Beautiful Handkerchief in the World

Simonnot-Godard has a rich history dating back to 1787 in France. For over 200 years, they have specialized in producing high-quality linen, handkerchiefs, and tableware. Their meticulous craftsmanship involves weaving and embroidering premium materials to create exquisite handkerchiefs. In the 1830s, they expanded their operations by establishing a production factory in northern France, enabling them to increase the quantity of handmade handkerchiefs. By the 1860s, Simonnot-Godard had already gained a loyal following among nobility throughout Europe. Today, Benjamin Simonnot is leading the company, ensuring that the Simonnot family's legacy lives on. Their exceptional products are adored in fashion capitals like Paris, New York, Tokyo, Naples, and London.

Simonnot-Godard is widely renowned for producing tableware and pocket squares for Hermès. In a 1961 Hermès advertisement, you can find a phrase detailing Simonnot-Godard's logo alongside the product range they offered. The Hermès handkerchief shown above represents Simonnot-Godard's signature line. Rather than printing patterns onto cotton or linen fabrics, they create patterns by intricately weaving the fabric itself. In addition to Hermès, Simonnot-Godard supplies the world's highest-quality pocket squares to legendary names such as Ralph Lauren, Dior, Lanvin, and Arnys.
