Hermès Kelly 20 Mini Cassis Shiny Alligator Gold Hardware
Hermès Kelly 20 Mini Cassis Shiny Alligator Gold Hardware
Retourne construction involves turning the bag inside-out during assembly, producing softer, rounded edges. The 20cm Kelly is a scaled format that adjusts the original proportions. Interior is lined in matching Chevre leather with one zip pocket and two slip pockets. Single top handle with detachable shoulder strap.

Notes: Photographed with the JaneFinds Cuban Crossbody Chain, a styling accessory sold separately and not included.
Collector's Insight: The Lisse finish comes from burnishing the hide by hand with an agate stone until the natural proteins take a gloss, so the shine sits inside the surface rather than over it. On a deep colour like Cassis that drives light into the pigment, and at 20 centimetres the whole bag reads as a single saturated field.
Resale Insight: Deep saturated colours on a shiny exotic reach a buyer who already owns the neutrals, which keeps the audience narrow and decided. At 20 centimetres the format is the least produced in the Kelly line, so comparable appearances in any single colour are infrequent and each one largely sets its own reference.
