Hermès So Black Kelly 35 Retourne Black Box Leather PVD Hardware - 2011, O Square
Hermès Kelly 35 Retourne So Black Black Leather PVD Hardware 2011 O Square Box
Jean-Paul Gaultier’s tenure at Hermès is considered by many bag collectors to be the brand’s golden years. The So Black collection was released shortly before the designer’s departure; a solemn symphony of black, every aspect permeated with dark theatricality. These So Black bags have become some of the most desirable and collectible Hermès bags on the market. This 35cm Kelly in black calf box leather with black PVD coated hardware is a fine example that has been maintained in excellent condition. Perfect for anyone who loves the So Black collection, this bag will be a great piece for any collection!
Retourne construction involves turning the bag inside-out during assembly, producing softer, rounded edges. The 35cm Kelly is a scaled format that adjusts the original proportions. Interior is lined in matching Chevre leather with one zip pocket and two slip pockets. Single top handle with detachable shoulder strap.

JaneFinds Collector's Insight: The So Black edition uses black PVD-coated hardware against black leather, eliminating all metallic contrast. Originally released in limited quantities, it has become one of the most sought-after special editions in the secondary market.
JaneFinds Market Insight: The Kelly's resale market has strengthened consistently, with Sellier construction and smaller sizes (20-25cm) seeing particular demand. Classic colors and complete sets (strap, lock, keys, clochette) support strongest valuations.
