Hermès Kelly 20 Sellier Owl Print Silk Jaune & Rouge Vif Box Calf Gold Hardware
Hermès Kelly 20 Sellier Owl Print Silk Jaune & Rouge Vif Box Calf Gold Hardware
This vintage Hermès Kelly 20 in Owl Print Silk Jaune (yellow) and Rouge Vif Box Calf is a rare masterpiece, perfectly encapsulating the whimsical artistry and superior craftsmanship that define the maison’s heritage. Far rarer than its modern Mini Kelly successors, this vintage model boasts a deeper and taller silhouette with the signature rounded 'bracelet' top handle. The playful owl motif, set against a cheerful yellow silk ground, is elegantly trimmed in vibrant Rouge Vif Box leather and accented with luminous gold hardware.
Crafted in 1990 (Circle T stamp) and maintained in outstanding condition, this exceptional piece offers greater functionality than the newer Mini Kelly 20, making it ideal for both evening and crossbody wear. The collectible silk-panel Mini Kellys, especially in such unique and lively motifs, are among the most sought-after and prized finds for Hermès connoisseurs. A true celebration of timeless creativity, rarity, and vintage Hermès allure.
