More Hermes Goodness




Item: Hermes Herbag PM in black and toile
Purchase Price: $680

This Herbag is one I am selling from my own collection. For those not familiar with Herbags - it has a drum-dyed leather top and handle which is interchangeable with two treated canvas sacs (one in black and one in Hermes toile). The hardware is palladium and includes a clochette, keys and lock. You can see it disassembled in the third photo.

The PM size is 30cm across at the bottom and about 26 high. It has been well used since I bought it and is priced accordingly. The black canvas sac has wear on all four bottom corners and the leather is indented where the clasp comes through at the front, there is also general scratching on the brushed palladium finishes. It is complete with all its parts including a glove holder, but no dustbag. It came from its original owner in Japan and was authenticated (of course) when it arrived. The date code is 'G' in a square, so it was born in 2003.

Email me for more photos. Anyone interested (in Perth) is welcome to come and have a look, and the new owner will get a (much needed) lesson in disassembling and reassembling.
