Hermès Cadena Lock Bag Black Tadelakt Palladium Hardware

The Hermès Cadenas clutch takes its shape from the padlock that closes the Birkin and the Kelly: the single rolled handle stands in for the shackle and the flat body for the lock.

The story behind the Cadenas

Hermès evening clutch shaped like the house padlock, in Tadelakt calfskin with a lambskin lining and handle, closed by a zip. Hermès lists it at L 17 × H 23 × D 2 cm.

Read the Cadenas reference

Raised ribs run down both sides, three bars cross the center panel, and a zip runs the full length of one side.

Tadelakt is a smooth calfskin with a polished finish. With tonal stitching and no contrast color, the raised lines carry the design on their own.

Collector's Insight:
Hermès has used the cadenas padlock as a motif for decades, on charms, belts and silk. The Cadenas clutch turns the lock itself into the object.

Resale Insight:
Smooth calfskin shows scratches more readily than grained leather, so buyers check the flat faces and the top of the handle, where marks show first on black.
