Hermes Craie Epsom Sellier Kelly 28cm Gold Hardware

Chalk-white Craie epsom leather shapes the 28cm Kelly Sellier, its fine pressed grain holding the crisp, straight-edged rectangle that defines the Sellier build under gold hardware. Tonal stitching runs along the edges in matching white thread, reinforcing the structured outline and keeping the flap, sides, and base in a precise, flat arrangement. Two straps run down the front to a front toggle closure, turning to secure the flap at the center, and the flap itself lies flat and even, with no softness at the corners. A single rolled handle arches above the flap, and a removable shoulder strap offers a second way to carry the bag, lowering it and freeing the hands when the handle is set aside.

Gold hardware appears at the toggle, the strap fittings, the handle attachments, and the clochette, creating a consistent warm metal line across the front of the bag. The clochette carries a lock and two keys, and the lock can be used with the toggle to add a secured close when the bag needs to stay shut. Opening the bag involves lifting the flap after releasing the toggle and drawing the straps aside, a sequence that exposes the full width of the interior at once. Closing restores the symmetrical front, with the two straps parallel and the toggle centered, and the flap settling flat against the body of the bag.

Craie chevre leather lines the interior in the same chalk tone as the epsom outside, smooth and even along the inner walls. One zip pocket, fitted with an Hermes engraved pull, closes fully on one side, holding small items apart from the main compartment and keeping them contained. Two open pockets face it on the opposite side, ready for items that need to be slipped in and taken out without working a zip, such as flat papers or small necessities. The main space between the pockets stays clear and orderly, helped by the flat Sellier walls, which keep contents stacked in an even row rather than pooling at the base.

At 11.25″ width x 8.25″ height x 4.75″ depth, with a 3.5″ handle drop and a 16.5″ shoulder strap drop, the Kelly holds a compact but genuinely useful interior for daily carry. Carried by the rolled handle, it sits upright and formal at the side, the flap facing outward and the gold toggle centered on the white leather. Worn on the removable shoulder strap, it hangs lower at the length set by the 16.5″ drop, freeing the hands while keeping the same structured silhouette. Craie epsom, tonal stitching, gold fittings, and a matching chevre lining give the bag one continuous pale color from the outside through to the pockets within, closed by two straps and a front toggle.
