Hermès Kelly Cut Matte 5P Bubblegum Pink Porosus Crocodile Gold Hardware

Sale price$88,000.00 USD

Hermès Kelly Cut 5P Bubblegum Pink Matte Porosus Crocodile Gold Hardware

The Hermès Kelly Cut is the elongated, architectural clutch derived from the iconic Kelly bag. Designed to serve as a streamlined evening piece, it retains the signature turn-lock closure, sangles (straps), and flat top handle of the original silhouette. This specific 2019 example (Stamp D) is rendered in **5P Bubblegum Pink**, the most coveted pink in the Hermès library, known for its pure, saturated vibrancy.

While 5P Bubblegum is typically associated with Alligator skin, this piece is crafted from **Matte Porosus Crocodile** (*Crocodylus porosus*), the premier exotic skin in the Hermès hierarchy. Porosus is distinguished by its fine, symmetrical scales and the tiny pores visible on each scale. The **Matte** finish is achieved by buffing the skin with wool felt, giving the vibrant pink a soft, velvety depth. Unusually for this color, it is finished with **Gold Hardware**, providing a warm, opulent contrast to the bright pink leather—a configuration far rarer than the standard Palladium pairing.

JaneFinds Collector’s Insight:
This bag represents a "Unicorn" configuration for three reasons: the color (5P), the skin (Porosus instead of the usual Alligator), and the hardware (Gold instead of Palladium). Porosus Crocodile is technically superior to Alligator due to the symmetry of the scales, and seeing it dyed in 5P is an anomaly in production. This is a trophy piece for the collector who values technical rarity alongside brand lore.

JaneFinds Market Insight:
The Kelly Cut in exotic skin is one of the most stable investments in the handbag market, often serving as the "Crown Jewel" of an evening wear collection. 5P Bubblegum consistently commands the highest premiums of any pink shade. The presence of Gold Hardware on a pink exotic often drives the price higher, as it appeals to clients who exclusively wear gold jewelry.
