The story behind the Bolide
Hermès dates the Bolide to 1923 and ties its rounded, zipped design to motor travel; it was the first Hermès bag closed by a zipper. Made in miniature, handbag and travel sizes.
Discover Hermès Bolide BagsThe Hermès Mini Bolide Shark Charm in Black Swift leather is a bold blend of heritage craftsmanship and playful design. Modeled after the classic Bolide silhouette, one of the house’s most storied shapes, this miniature version adds a dash of irreverent flair with its cartoonish shark face and exaggerated teeth motif. A collector’s favorite from Hermès’ rare novelty charm lineup, this piece is small in size but large in personality.
Crafted from supple Black Swift leather and finished with cool Palladium hardware, the charm offers a buttery-soft texture and a subtle sheen. The whimsical appliqué eye and sharp-toothed grin are rendered in precise inlay, adding high-contrast character to the sleek black silhouette. The loop strap allows for easy attachment to a bag, keyring, or wrist. As both accessory and objet d’art, it’s a miniature that delivers maximum visual punch.
