Hermès Kelly 25 Retourne 5P Bubblegum Pink Matte Alligator Palladium Hardware

The Hermès Kelly 25 Retourne in 5P Bubblegum Pink is widely regarded as the ultimate "Grail" for collectors of color. "5P" is the specific color code for this vivid, saturated pink, which is historically significant for its purity—it possesses neither the purple undertones of Rose Scheherazade nor the coral notes of Rose Tyrien. It is a "true" pink that reads with exceptional intensity.

This example is crafted from Matte Alligator Mississippiensis. The matte finish is achieved by buffing the skin with wool felt, creating a soft, velvety texture that diffuses light. This finish is preferred for 5P because it gives the leather a marshmallow-like softness that perfectly complements the candy color. Constructed in the Retourne style (with internal stitching), the bag has a relaxed, rounded profile that feels modern and effortless. Finished with Palladium Hardware, the cool silver tones provide a crisp contrast to the warmth of the pink.

JaneFinds Collector’s Insight:
5P Bubblegum is one of the few colors that rivals the Himalaya in terms of market hierarchy. It is produced in extremely limited quantities and is typically reserved for top-tier VIPs. A Kelly 25 in this specific configuration (Matte 5P) is considered an "Index" asset—a piece that defines the market for pink exotics and serves as a cornerstone for a serious collection.

JaneFinds Market Insight:
Pink exotics command a significant premium over all other colors (except white/Himalaya). Within the "Pink" category, 5P is the gold standard. Its value is driven by global demand for "Barbie" tones and the scarcity of the dye. Pristine examples from recent years (like this 2020 Y stamp) are highly liquid and continue to set price records in the secondary market.
