Hermès Kelly 28 Sellier Rouge H Sombrero Gold Hardware

The Hermès Kelly 28 Sellier in Rouge H Sombrero with Gold Hardware is a Kelly in specialty leather. Sombrero is a smooth calfskin with an ultra-matte finish and soft, velvety hand. Unlike the glossy shine of Box Calf or Tadelakt, Sombrero absorbs light rather than reflects it, which creates deep color saturation. The matte finish emphasizes the Sellier construction's architectural lines without surface reflection.

Rouge H is Hermès' original archival red—a deep burgundy with brown undertones, darker and richer than Rouge Casaque or Rouge de Coeur. Gold hardware provides warm contrast. Sombrero leather is sensitive to scratching and marking, similar to Barenia—it develops patina and shows use over time. This example was produced in 2020 with Y stamp and is in preloved condition.

JaneFinds Collector's Insight:
Sombrero was introduced as a matte alternative to Box Calf—smooth surface with contemporary finish. Production in Sombrero is limited compared to standard leathers like Epsom or Togo. The Kelly 28 Sellier in Sombrero is particularly rare; most Sombrero production goes to smaller accessories or special orders. The leather's sensitivity to marking requires buyers who understand that surface wear is characteristic rather than defect. Rouge H in Sombrero creates particularly deep color saturation due to the matte finish.

JaneFinds Market Insight:
Sombrero occupies a specialist niche—it appeals to collectors who prioritize unique leathers over pristine preservation. The leather develops character with use, which means preloved examples can be more desirable than pristine to certain buyers. Rouge H holds consistent value as Hermès' signature red. Kelly 28 Selliers in specialty leathers like Sombrero trade at premiums among knowledgeable collectors, though they require educated buyers who appreciate the leather's properties. Market is narrower than standard leathers but pricing holds strong within that niche.
