BIG Pristine Vintage HERMES Kelly, Black with Gold 32cm

Clothing : Luxury Goods : Hermes

 

A SUPERB vintage 100% affirmed authentic HERMES Kelly bag in excellent condition - this one looks as if it's never been worn at all! I must first tell you that this one at first threw me a bit since it hasn't got the impressed codes I look for, and I took her to the Beverly Hills HERMES store (Rodeo Drive) and had her looked at. They affirmed authenticity, and would have taken the bag in for a 'spa treatment' if desired, but affirmed that the bag is in exceptionally good condition. They told me I can have the spa treatment if I would like to, but in their opinion, this bag does not yet need it. I agreed, but it's the way PurseForum explained to authenticate the bag. (PurseForum members affirmed that they thought this one 'looked good' as HERMES when I was questioning the lack of impressed codes on the bag, and affirmed that not all bags from HERMES have impressed codes). Also, the key that is shown with it and which came to me with this bag is the original clochette and keys from HERMES, and does open the matching lock, both original to this bag and both numbered, as shown in our images. This one is good to go for another 50 years, ladies. A magnificent large (measures 32cm x 11cm on bottom leather) HERMES Black Box Kelly bag with gold hardware is in remarkably good condition and is clean, odorless and ready to be used. True to the elegance of the HERMES name, this deep brown leather purse has already stood the test of time in style and quality materials and craftsmanship and is a perfect size for today's sophisticated fashion diva. This bag comes from a smoke-free and pet-free home, (no odors!). The bag is just as I found it, without dust cover or original box, and is superb and is perfectly serviceable for years to come. The bag is so rich and smooth in the finish - very supple, still. Really gorgeous color! The hardware is brilliantly shining, and in elegant accent - gold, as I believe Hermes vintage hardware is all 22K gold plated, if I'm not mistaken. I know earlier pieces we've had have been that. We think this one is the same. I'm in love with this one and its slightly larger brown cousin, also listing today. As you can see, my favorite HERMES scarf looks fantastic with either bag. (Be sure to look for the otehr one, listed separately)

Very good condition, as noted above and in our images. I was told this one is a 1980s bag, though I did not think to have that authenticated while I was at HERMES. Experts, can you pin it any closer for us? NOTE: bag will come with a generic (not Hermes) felt dust bag and a large orange HERMES shopping bag to fit it (yes, authentic).
