Hermès Kellywood 22 Bog Oak, Aluminum & Barenia Leather Palladium Hardware

The Hermès Kellywood 22 is a triumph of technical innovation and artisanal daring—a bold reimagining of the classic Kelly silhouette that bridges the gap between leather goods and fine marquetry. This 22cm Sellier masterpiece is constructed from ancient Bog Oak, a fossilized wood prized for its deep, smoky tone and density. The wood is precision-cut and inlaid with strips of Aluminum in a striking chevron pattern, creating a futuristic interplay of light and shadow. The structure is framed by heritage Barenia leather—the maison’s original saddle leather—which adds a rich, velvety touch and a scent of authenticity. Inside, a flash of Gold Chèvre leather provides a luxurious contrast to the dark exterior. Finished with Palladium hardware, the Kellywood is not merely a handbag; it is a museum-caliber object that showcases the absolute peak of Hermès' "Metiers d'Art" capabilities.

JaneFinds Collector’s Insight:
The Kellywood is one of the most radical interpretations of the Kelly ever released. It represents a "futuristic heritage" aesthetic that appeals to design purists. The pairing of Barenia (a leather that patinas) with Bog Oak (a wood that is effectively frozen in time) creates a poetic tension that sophisticated collectors adore. It is produced in vanishingly small numbers, even fewer than the Faubourg editions.

JaneFinds Resale Insight:
Debuting with a retail price exceeding $80,000, the Kellywood is an asset reserved for the ultra-high-net-worth collector. Its value is insulated by its sheer production complexity—very few artisans at Hermès are qualified to work with this wood-and-metal marquetry. Consequently, it commands exceptional premiums and is often traded privately rather than on the open market.
