Hermès Kelly Longue Bleu Jean Evergrain Palladium Hardware
Kelly Longue in Bleu Jean Evergrain with Palladium hardware. The Kelly Longue is a discontinued clutch format that preceded the Kelly Cut, carrying the Kelly's flap-and-tournante closure in an elongated rectangular proportion with more depth and structure than the flatter Cut that replaced it. Production ended around 2010. No handle, no strap.
Bleu Jean is a medium denim blue that has been part of the Hermès palette since the 1990s, one of the most recognized and consistently produced blues in the house's spectrum. On Evergrain the color reads as soft and even across the fine crosshatch grain. Palladium hardware provides cool-toned harmony with the blue.

Collector's Insight: The Kelly Longue was discontinued around 2010 and never reissued. Bleu Jean has remained in continuous production across the broader Hermès range, which gives it wider recognition than the seasonal colors the format also appeared in. Evergrain has been used sparingly in recent years. Excellent condition on a clutch of this age indicates storage rather than use.
Resale Insight: Bleu Jean's universal recognition gives this Longue a wider buyer pool than more polarizing discontinued colors. The Kelly Longue format remains a niche piece that appeals to completists and collectors seeking uncommon Hermès formats. It trades below Kelly Cut equivalents due to lower name recognition, but Bleu Jean's enduring popularity partially offsets the format discount.
