The story behind the Sabot
Hermès bag, made in calfskin and, for the Picnic line, in osier wicker.
Read the Sabot referenceIntroduced in 2023, its sculptural silhouette is a direct interpretation of a horse's hoof, or "sabot," grounding the piece in the brand's equestrian origins. The body is constructed from hand-woven Osier wicker, a material that requires exceptional artisanal skill to shape without breaking. This rustic lattice is structurally reinforced and framed by Fauve Barenia leather, the house's original saddle skin known for its smooth touch and capability to develop a distinctive patina. The result is an object that balances the leisurely spirit of an outdoor déjeuner with the rigorous precision of high-end saddlery.
Collector's Insight:
The Picnic line has achieved cult status since the introduction of the Picnic Kelly in 2011. The Sabot distinguishes itself as a true "Objet d'Art," prioritizing sculptural form over traditional handbag utility. It appeals to the collector who views their archive as a gallery of design history. The combination of fragile wicker and robust Barenia requires careful preservation, making pristine examples exceedingly rare.
Resale Insight:
Hermès wicker pieces are produced in extremely limited quantities due to the specialized skills required for the weaving process. Consequently they sit apart from the standard leather goods in both supply and character. The Sabot is a newer and more avant-garde shape, and it will read as a piece of the 2020s in a way the classics never will.
