Hermès Kelly Bag 28 Togo Menthe Palladium Hardware
$25,000.00
Hermès Kelly 28 Menthe Togo Leather Palladium Hardware
The Hermès Kelly 28 in Menthe offers a high-impact alternative to the brand's standard greens like Bambou or Malachite. Menthe is a vibrant, cool-toned mint green with subtle blue undertones that prevent it from leaning too yellow or "grassy." Originally a standout hue from the Spring/Summer 2012 collection, it has seen sporadic, limited re-releases, keeping it fresh in the market while remaining scarce. Crafted here in Togo leather, the matte finish of the grain absorbs light, giving the bright pigment a sophisticated, velvety depth rather than a sharp neon glare.
The 28cm Retourne silhouette is widely regarded as the most versatile size in the Kelly lineup;large enough for daily essentials but compact enough to be worn crossbody without the bulk of a 32cm. The durability of Togo leather makes this a functional choice for a "Pop" color bag intended for regular rotation. Accented with Palladium hardware, the cool metallic tones enhance the crisp, aquatic nature of the mint pigment.

JaneFinds Collector's Insight:
Menthe is a "Legacy" pop color that holds a specific nostalgia for collectors of the 2012 era. It sits in a unique spot on the color wheel: significantly more vibrant than the pastel Vert Criquet but more sophisticated and easier to pair than the comic-book brightness of Vert Comics. In the 28cm size, it functions as a that pairs unexpectedly well with neutrals like Gris Tourterelle, Navy, and White.
JaneFinds Market Insight:
While neutrals (Gold, Noir, Etoupe) are the safest volume movers, "Pop" colors in the Kelly 28 size occupy a high-value niche. They are less volatile than Mini Kellys but offer better liquidity than 32cm bags in bright colors, which can sometimes sit on the market longer. Menthe, specifically, is a stable asset because it is distinct enough to be collectible but wearable enough to not be strictly a "shelf trophy."
