Vintage Hermès Kelly 28 Sellier Black Box Gold Hardware The Qashqai Custom
Hermès Kelly 28 Sellier Black Box Gold Hardware "The Qashqai" JaneFinds Custom Shop
A vintage Kelly 28 as canvas. The base is Black Box Sellier;Hermès's original smooth calfskin with its characteristic semi-gloss finish and structural rigidity. The JaneFinds Custom Shop commissioned hand-painted artwork across the surface: "The Qashqai," referencing the textile traditions of Persian nomadic tribes.
The painting renders stylized flora, geometric tribal motifs, and bird figures in earth tones;ochre, rust, azure, cream;against the black leather as negative space. The effect reads as tapestry or hand-woven rug translated onto leather. Gold hardware aligns with the warm palette. Vintage production predates shoulder straps on this size; a JaneFinds Gold Cuban Crossbody Chain is included for modern carry options.

JaneFinds Collector's Insight:
Custom Shop pieces repurpose vintage Hermès as foundations for commissioned artwork. The Qashqai transforms Black Box Kelly's formal severity into something more idiosyncratic;tribal pattern against French leather heritage. These appeal to collectors seeking one-of-one pieces rather than factory specifications.
JaneFinds Market Insight:
Artistic interventions on vintage Hermès create singular objects outside standard market comparisons. The value combines vintage Kelly foundation, commissioned craftsmanship, and uniqueness. No direct comparable exists; pricing reflects the intersection of these elements.
