The story behind the Sabot
Hermès bag, made in calfskin and, for the Picnic line, in osier wicker.
Read the Sabot referenceThe Hermès Picnic Sabot is a whimsical yet technically formidable addition to the maison's celebrated Picnic universe. Its sculptural silhouette is a direct interpretation of a horse's hoof, or "sabot," grounding the piece in the brand's equestrian origins. The body is constructed from hand-woven Osier wicker, a material that requires exceptional artisanal skill to shape without breaking. This rustic lattice is structurally reinforced and framed by Fauve Barenia leather, the house's original saddle skin known for its smooth touch and capability to develop a distinctive patina. The result is an object that balances the leisurely spirit of an outdoor déjeuner with the rigorous precision of high-end saddlery.
Collector's Insight:
The Sabot distinguishes itself as a true "Objet d'Art," prioritizing sculptural form over traditional handbag utility. It appeals to the collector who views their archive as a gallery of design history. The combination of fragile wicker and robust Barenia requires careful preservation.
Resale Insight:
Hermès wicker pieces require specialized skills in the weaving process, and they sit apart from the standard leather goods in character. The Sabot is a newer and more avant-garde shape, and it will read as a piece of the 2020s in a way the classics never will.
