"Tanzanie," was designed by the iconic animal artist, Robert Dallet, and was released in 1997/1998 for Hermès' Year of Africa fall/winter collection. This beloved design depicts the exotic animals and the native people residing in Tanzania, Africa. This design has never been reissued, hence, as all Dallet designs, is becoming rare and very collectible.
The colorway is comprised of a beige border with the center designs featuring sand, sage greens, silver greys, fawn, camel, brown with coral, light blue and black accents.
