Hermès Verrou Alligator Elan Clutch Black Matte Palladium Hardware
Hermès Verrou Elan Clutch Black Matte Alligator Palladium Hardware
The Verrou Elan in Black Matte Alligator with Palladium hardware. The bolt-lock closure—introduced in 1938—defines the bag: industrial hardware on a refined silhouette. The elongated Elan format stretches the Verrou horizontally, creating a slim clutch profile that holds flat against the body. Matte Alligator Mississippiensis absorbs light across each scale; the finish reads sophisticated without the reflective intensity of shiny exotic.
Black leather-lined interior with four slip pockets. The closure mechanism slides horizontally rather than turning—different from Kelly or Constance hardware, deliberately mechanical in appearance.

JaneFinds Collector's Insight:
The Verrou Elan occupies a specific niche—architectural evening clutch with industrial closure detail. Exotic versions are produced in limited quantities; Black Matte Alligator is among the most sought configurations. The bolt mechanism provides visual distinction from Hermès's turnlock and H-clasp silhouettes.
JaneFinds Market Insight:
Exotic Verrou clutches trade at premiums reflecting both material value and format scarcity. The Elan's slim profile and distinctive closure appeal to collectors seeking evening pieces beyond Kelly Pochette or Constance. Pristine condition in Black Matte Alligator represents strong positioning.
