The story behind the Kelly Longue
A clutch adaptation of the Kelly with a trapezoidal shape that recalls the original bag's structure, slightly wider than the Kelly Cut that replaced it. Discontinued around 2008.
Discover Wallets, Clutches, PochettesBlue Jean, the house's soft denim blue, reads calm and even on Evergrain, a fine, tight-grained calfskin with a matte finish, and palladium hardware keeps it cool.
Collector's Insight:
The Kelly Longue is no longer made, which makes it the less common of the house's long Kelly clutches.
Resale Insight:
Buyers check the long flap edge and corners for rubbing, since a clutch is handled more than carried, and the turn-lock for plating wear.
