JaneFinds Collector’s Insight: Gulliver leather—predecessor to Swift—is prized for its soft texture and rich color absorption. Combined with Vert Cru, a discontinued favorite, this vintage mini Kelly embodies the joyful rarity of early ’90s Hermès color innovation in a wearable, highly collectible scale.

JaneFinds Resale Insight: Vintage Kelly Minis in discontinued leathers like Gulliver are increasingly scarce. Their investment potential is enhanced by both their size and color rarity, particularly when preserved in excellent condition like this one.
