Hermès Kelly 28 Retourne Blue Hydra leather Evercolor Palladium Hardware
While Hermès is known for their incredible colors, their selection of blues alone spans over forty shades. Some hues such as Blue Jean and Blue Marine are produced for decades, while other shades are more elusive, only popping up for one season before seemingly disappearing entirely. Though a perfect blue like this may seem simple, somehow it's rendered with endless facets of simply more blue. The sleek Palladium hardware amplifies the effect on this 28cm Kelly done in rich Veau Evercolor leather which brings this shade to the next level. An iconic and very sought after handbag in one of Hermès' most vibrant shades of blue.
Retourne construction involves turning the bag inside-out during assembly, producing softer, rounded edges. The 28cm Kelly is the most classic proportion for the silhouette. Interior is lined in matching Chevre leather with one zip pocket and two slip pockets. Single top handle with detachable shoulder strap.

Collector's Insight: The Kelly in Blue Hydra leather Evercolor carries the lineage of the original 1930s sac à dépêches, formally renamed the Kelly in 1977.
Resale Insight: The market demand for Kelly bags, particularly in the 28cm size, continues to outpace supply. This specific configuration is a staple for collectors seeking a balance of heritage and contemporary style.
