Specifications
Hermès Style & Size
The Kelly 28 is a bag which moves from day to evening and comes in either the relaxed Retourne style or the more structured and boxier shaped Sellier. This was a small bag, and is now considered a medium size piece which will fit a Smartphone, compact wallet, keys, sunglasses, make up essentials, passport, small notebook and a pen.
Hermès Material
Known as Gulliver until it was discontinued in 1999, this leather was reintroduced in 2005 as Swift. It has a fine grain which is soft to the touch and the ability to absorb dyes and reflect the light make it very popular. The drawback to Swift is that it is easily scratched so needs careful handling.
Hermès Colour
Céleste is a light, clear blue that evokes the clarity and brightness of a clear summer sky. It’s a pretty and uplifting colour and can be quite versatile, a shade which can be worn on a winter’s day as well as all summer long. Pair it with white, navy, cream, grey, and even tan or gold tones.
Hardware
Hermès Palladium hardware is made of solid brass, giving weight and durability, and then plated in precious metal. Palladium belongs to the platinum group of metals and has a brighter and whiter look than silver. More precious than gold, palladium is hard wearing and scratch-resistant.
