Hermès Colour Guide

Please note that this is not an exhaustive list, however it is a guide to a good number of both the fabulous colours and leathers that have been produced by Hermes over the years.  There are some which are no longer available or are not currently being produced, however we felt it useful to display them for reference purposes.  Please click on the images below to view the swatches.

Hermès Black & Grey Leathers & Materials

Understated doesn’t have to mean simple. Black and grey Hermès bags are a study in tonal detail, from the true noir of Box calf to the gentle mist of Gris Mouette. These colours are chosen not just for versatility, but for the way they ground a collection. Textures vary dramatically: smooth, matte, or pebbled. See how these enduring shades shift across leathers in our Hermès Colour Guide.
