The story behind the Kelly
Created in the 1930s by Robert Dumas as a women's bag with straps: a trapezoid with two triangular gussets, a cutout flap, a handle and two side straps. It took the Kelly name in 1956, when Grace Kelly made it famous. Sellier construction keeps the seams on the outside for a more defined outline; Retourné construction turns them inside for softer edges. The leather does not decide the construction: Christie's records Box calf Kellys in both.
Discover Hermès Kelly BagsThis limited-edition Kelly 28 frames the De Camp Déchaînée toile, printed with abstract chain graphics, in Fauve Barenia, the house's saddle leather, known for its supple hand and the patina it develops with use.
Retourne construction gives the bag a relaxed silhouette, and palladium hardware adds a crisp finish.
Collector's Insight:
The De Camp Déchaînée pairs a limited toile pattern with Fauve Barenia, a leather that develops character with age.
Resale Insight:
Buyers check the Barenia for water marks and scratches and the toile for soiling at the corners.
