Hermès Mini Constance 18 Black Epsom with Gold Hardware

Hermès Constance 18 Mini Black Epsom Gold Hardware

With a rich history spanning over five decades, the Constance bag pre-dates the iconic Birkin. Its signature H closure has remained largely unchanged since its inception, making it a timeless design. However, this particular 18cm version in sleek Black Epsom leather boasts an updated touch - two gussets that divide the Agneau Lambskin-lined interior into two compartments. Adorned with shining Gold hardware, this pristine bag is a contemporary interpretation of a classic, destined to remain stylish for the next 50 years and beyond.

The Constance features Hermès' signature H-clasp closure, one of the most recognizable hardware elements in the house's vocabulary. Interior is lined in matching leather with a center divider, front slip pocket, and rear slot pocket. The crossbody strap is adjustable.

Collector's Insight: The Constance is produced in significantly smaller quantities than the Birkin or Kelly, making it one of the more difficult Hermès bags to acquire at retail. The 18cm format is particularly scarce.

Resale Insight: The Constance has emerged as one of the strongest performers in the Hermès resale market, with demand increasingly rivaling the Birkin and Kelly. The 18cm and 24cm sizes in classic colors maintain particularly strong positioning.
