Collector's Insight: H Square places this at 2004, the year the Kelly Danse debuted on the runway as part of Jean Paul Gaultier's first collection for Hermès. First-year production pieces carry additional provenance for collectors interested in the design's origin. Vert Cru in Swift is a seasonal color and leather combination from the original production run. The Kelly Danse was discontinued before being reissued in 2024 as the Kelly Danse II with updated proportions.
Resale Insight: Original Kelly Danse bags from the Gaultier era trade at strong levels on the secondary market. First-year 2004 production pieces are the most collectible within the original run. Vert Cru is a less common color than Noir or Etoupe, giving this example added scarcity within an already limited production history.
