Hermès Style & Size
Spacious and ideal for accompanying you to work, the Kelly 32 is similar to the Birkin 35 in terms of size and what it can fit inside. In the soft togo or clemence leathers it is soft and pliable and opens easily but the narrow top makes fitting in a standard size laptop or document impossible.
Hermès Material
A smooth leather with no visible grain which gives it an almost polished, glossy appearance. It has a higher shine than many Hermès leathers but this does mean it is more prone to scratches and marks.
Hermès Colour
Fauve Barenia is a signature colour that exemplifies the house’s deep-rooted heritage in equestrian craftsmanship and timeless elegance. “Fauve,” meaning “tawny” in French, refers to the rich, golden-brown hue of the leather – reminiscent of saddle leather.
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.
