Hermes Kelly Pochette Chocolate Veau Doblis Suede Gold Hardware - 2014, R Square

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
During Jean-Paul Gaultier’s time at Hermes, he revolutionized the house’s classic styles in many new and exciting ways. One of the most enduring of his updated designs is the Kelly Pochette, which has now been in production for close to twenty years. This extremely unusual example is done in Doblis Suede (an enduring favorite among Hermes collectors) in stunning Chocolate Brown topped with Gold hardware. It is an exceptional piece that is both subtle and exciting. Hermes is a luxury house known for its high level of leather craft, but one type of leather is rarely used in Hermes’ bags - suede. This soft material we’re all so familiar with comes from the underside of the skin and is softer and more flexible than the outer layer. The reason Hermes rarely makes suede handbags is durability. The natural fibers that make suede fuzzy easily hold dirt and darken, and the material overall will wear through faster than leather with heavy use. Anything that does not have reliable lifelong durability Hermes either removes from production entirely, such as python and pony hair, or elevates for use exclusively in exceptional pieces, like with silk and suede.
