Hermès Kelly II Mini Sellier Beton Ostrich with Gold Hardware

Hermès Kelly II Mini Sellier Beton Ostrich with Gold Hardware

This Kelly II Mini in Beton Ostrich with Gold hardware is a masterpiece of quiet luxury. Beton, a cool architectural off-white introduced by Hermès, is one of the house’s most sought-after modern neutrals. Rendered in rare and prized Ostrich leather, the natural follicle pattern adds an organic texture to the sharp Sellier silhouette. Compact, iconic, and effortlessly refined, this 20cm Kelly is a jewel in any serious collection.

The structured Sellier shape is enhanced by warm gold hardware, creating a beautiful contrast against the soft grey tone. This 2022 example, stamped U, is a modern classic with understated elegance and lasting appeal.

Collector’s Note:
Mini Kelly bags continue to be one of the most competitive categories in the Hermès universe, and Beton Ostrich with Gold hardware represents an especially rare and elegant combination. Ostrich in Beton is notoriously difficult to secure—only offered in select seasons and highly dependent on leather availability. The tonal harmony between this soft gray shade and rich gold hardware adds to its understated luxury, making it a refined yet quietly powerful statement. For collectors who lean toward elevated neutrals and impeccable construction, this Mini Kelly delivers both scarcity and timelessness.

Resale Insight:
Mini Kellys remain one of the most lucrative and in-demand assets in the Hermès secondary market. Beton, being both a core neutral and a rare seasonal Ostrich offering, consistently commands strong resale premiums. Condition 2/5 (Excellent) preserves value for collectors seeking lightly handled pieces without paying the new-store premium. This configuration, especially in exotic leather with gold hardware, is increasingly difficult to source post-2023, making this a smart addition to a diversified Hermès portfolio.
