Hermès Constance 18 Ombré Lizard Gold Hardware - 2019, D
When it comes to Lizard, the most coveted bags are those where the natural black and white ringed Ombre pattern is left uncolored, and allowed to show through. Like Himalayans, each skin has a unique coloration and pattern. This 18cm Constance has exceptionally well defined rings, and evenly ombres out to white right at the edges, exactly what should be expected of the best quality Ombre lizard bags. On top of that, it has gold hardware, a recent change from the standard palladium that had been almost always paired with Ombre lizard for years. This is a smart change, as Ombre lizard will yellow with time, due to exposure to oxygen and sunlight, but the warm yellow of the gold hardware will make this change almost unnoticeable by comparison. This example is still store-fresh, and bright white everywhere it should be, fresh from the craftsman’s table in Pantin. Investment Bag™.

The term "hardware" refers to the metallic parts of the bag, such as the buckle hardware, base studs, lock and keys and/or strap, which are plated with a colored finish (e.g. gold, silver, palladium). The terms refer to the tone or color of the hardware and not the actual material used. If hardware is composed of precious solid metals this will be referenced in the description.
