Designed by Pierre Hardy for the Hermès Haute Bijouterie collection, launched in 2012. The body is an articulated 18K Rose Gold mesh that moves and compresses to mimic the suppleness of a leather bag. The surface replicates Niloticus crocodile scale pattern using 2,326 Pink Sapphires in Princess cuts for the larger belly scales and Round Brilliant cuts for the contour scales. Working Kelly turn-lock closure. Removable black silk satin strap lined in calfskin for shoulder wear. Can also be carried by hand or displayed as an objet d'art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 – Pristine\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYear:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18K Rose Gold \/ Pink Sapphires (80.52 ct, 2,326 stones)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStone Cuts:\u003c\/strong\u003e Princess, Round Brilliant\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rose Gold\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStrap:\u003c\/strong\u003e Removable black silk satin, calfskin-lined\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lock, strap\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCollector's Insight:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Sac Bijou Kelly is a High Jewelry piece, not a handbag. Pierre Hardy engineered the articulated gold mesh to replicate the movement of leather, a technical feat requiring hundreds of hours of goldsmithing and stone setting. Production was limited to a small number of units globally across the collection's variations. Each piece required individual hand-setting of over 2,300 sapphires to simulate crocodile skin at miniature scale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eResale Insight:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Sac Bijou Kelly is valued on both commodity terms (gold weight and carat value of gems) and artistic provenance. Unlike leather goods, this piece does not degrade with time. It trades privately at levels reflecting its rarity, with fewer than a dozen known examples across all variations of the collection. Museum-grade collectible that appeals equally to jewelry connoisseurs and Hermès collectors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e👜 \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/janefinds.com\/pages\/the-janefinds-standard-condition-guide\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eJaneFinds Condition Guide\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e📦 \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/janefinds.com\/pages\/consign\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSell With JaneFinds\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e\n{\n  \"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n  \"@type\": \"Product\",\n  \"name\": \"Hermès Mini Sac Bijou Kelly 18K Rose Gold 80ct Pink Sapphire Pierre Hardy\",\n  \"brand\": { \"@type\": \"Brand\", \"name\": \"Hermès\" },\n  \"material\": \"18K Rose Gold, Pink Sapphires\",\n  \"color\": \"Rose Gold\",\n  \"itemCondition\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\/UsedCondition\",\n  \"description\": \"Hermès Mini Sac Bijou Kelly in 18K Rose Gold with 80.52 carats of Pink Sapphires.
