HERMÈS bags have remained unchanged in this era of rapid change and continue to capture the hearts and minds of fashion lovers.
The products born from the exquisite harness-making techniques have spun many stories since the first half of the 19th century.
Among the various bags, including the "Kelly," "Birkin," and "Autacroix," the "Evelyn" is the most eye-catching.
The “Evelyn” was created half a century ago as a bag for carrying a set of tools necessary for horse grooming. It is marked by a large letter "H" on the side. The small holes in the shape of the letter "H" have a meaning, and are made to allow for ventilation of the bag for wet tools.
The motif of this unchanged creation is used in the sterling silver rings and bracelets.
The jewelry line "Pointe Sériere" was created to pay homage to the history of the Maison's leather goods.
Bracelet ¥495,000
Ring ¥144,100
The orderly arrangement of the small holes shows the high level of skill of Hermes, which is skilled in the handling of sterling silver.
This universal shape, which suits a wide range of styles, is one of the reasons why I am attracted to this product.
And its appearance seems to speak for the appeal of a design that is unrelated to the time frame.
