Hermès Style & Size
The Mini Kelly II, introduced in around 2018, followed an earlier mini Kelly that existed in vintage styles from the 1980s and 1990s. With room for only the essentials the Kelly 20 has traditionally been seen as an evening bag, but the addition of a shoulder strap lends versatility, making it an increasingly popular choice for daytime wear as well.
Hermès Material
An embossed, lightweight leather which is both water resistant and less prone to scratches. Replaced by Epsom leather in 2004.
Hermès Colour
Gold is one of Hermes’ most iconic and enduring leather colours – a rich, warm medium tan with golden undertones that reflects Hermès’ equestrian heritage and timeless style. Introduced decades ago, it remains a cornerstone in the brand’s colour palette and is instantly recognizable for its classic elegance. Like Etoupe and Blue Jean, Gold handbags always feature contrast white stitching.
Hardware
Hermès Gold hardware is made of solid brass, giving weight and durability, plated in either 18 carat gold, or for some Special Order bags, 24 carat gold and then hand polished. Choose gold hardware for a warm, luxurious finish to your bag.
