Hermès Kelly 35cm Black Shiny Croc GHW - Vintage

Sale price£16,000.00

A beautiful bag, this is a true vintage piece from 1968.  It is in remarkably good condition bearing in mind that it is almost 60 years old and the only signs of use are those you would expect from a bag this old.   As is usual with Kellies of this age, there is no strap with the bag.

Hermès Material

The Porosus Crocodile has smaller, more symmetrical scales in a more uniform pattern than the Nilocitus. The shiny (Lisse) finish is created by hand-buffing the crocodile skin with agate stone, a process that draws out the leather’s natural oils . It achieves a fabulous mirror like, almost glassy finish and works extremely well with rich colours. Porosus crocodile is signified by a caret ^ symbol next to the Hermes name on the bag.

Hermès Colour

Black Birkins have always been, and continue to be, Lilac Blue's best seller. For Hermes bags it is one of very few classic colours and is produced every season of every year. Black complements all types of wardrobes and occasions – from formal business wear to casual jeans and neutrals and whether you’re a seasoned collector or making your first purchase, it will never go out of style.

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.
