The Hermes Kelly bag, like its muse Grace Kelly, is the definition of timeless elegance. Every Kelly bag is hand made by a craftsman. It takes 25 hours per bag and the Kelly bag has over 2000 hand sewn stitches. These bags truly are an investment, meaning that they either hold or increase value over time. It is nearly impossible to walk into a Hermes boutique and be offered a Kelly without first establishing a client “profile”, which equate to a long history of purchasing. Such a rare and collectable piece, it makes for a highly valuable handbag to own!
This beautiful Kelly is constructed of black Box leather which is noted for having a fine grain and a smooth, shiny texture with Palladium plated hardware. The style of this Kelly bag is Sellier, also called rigide, which has side seams stitched on the exterior giving the bag a stiffer and more triangular form. The interior is lined in matching Chevre (goatskin) leather. Includes a matching shoulder strap, bell shaped key fob (clochette) with keys and matching lock.
The exterior leather is clean with rubbing to the bottom corner edges. The Box leather has visible scuff marks to the front and back. There is a 4" scratch on the base of the bag and several scuff marks under the flap. The flap shows minor creasing. The hardware is bright with hairline surface scratches. The interior leather remains clean and overall in good condition.
