Hermès Kelly 20 Sellier Shiny Black Porosus Crocodile Gold Hardware - 1991

Though the new Mini Kelly II has exploded as the latest 'it' iteration of the iconic, century-old top-handle bag, dedicated Hermès collectors will always have a place in their hearts for the original 20cm Kelly. Produced from the 1980's until around the turn of the century, this edition featured a round handle that fit easily around the wrist, transforming the bag into a hybrid bracelet/bag with a wider base than the latest version. This exquisite example, rendered in finely scaled shiny black Porosus Crocodile skin with gold hardware (could there be a more classic combination?) is the most timeless, classic, and ultimate version of the vintage 20cm Kelly. This is an ideal evening bag that sings with almost any outfit, and is the perfect heirloom to pass down for generations.
