CLEMENCE IN BURGUNDY CROCO

£12,000

A rare 1980s Hermès Constance 23 crafted from shiny burgundy Porosus crocodile skin. The bag features the iconic oversized gold-plated 'H' snap closure and a versatile leather strap for shoulder or crossbody wear. The structured interior is lined in tonal leather, reflecting the peak of 20th-century artisanal luxury.

This deep burgundy is a direct echo of the Chanel lipstick we painstakingly saved for as children to gift our mother. It is the color of maturity and quiet strength. In our curation, we treat this Constance as a historical artifact; by installing it alongside old children’s drawings or Lego designs, we magically bridge the gap between that early childhood impulse and the sophisticated reality of world-class craftsmanship.
