For tonight we’ve saved up a delicate snack that is so high in calories you may want to cut back on the Tostitos and salsa for the next few days. Further reading may also cause high amounts of stress and as a result thereof, hightened blood pressure, sudden queasiness and uncontrolable sweating. In addition, you may start drooling like a Pavolian dog at ring bell and tears may roll down your cheeks for no apparent reason.
hermes kelly 40 cm handbag in malachite green togo leather very apparent, because the purse blog duo had worked its way into the lion’s den, the molten, glowing hot core of the Big Momma of all handbags – the Hermes Headquarters in Paris. Being nearly paralyzed of awe, we stood in front of the wide store front and stared for literally 20 minutes at the carefully selected exclusive goodies resting in the display cases. Jealous eyes scanned those that came out of the enormous store with one of those highly sought after orange shopping bags, being proof of obvious financial wealth or willingness to dive into debt. Eventually, reality settled in and we figured that it was still yet another store that was offering goods, and that there was nothing to really be afraid of. Another reality settled in rather quickly once the heavy black doors swung open, we stepped in and the aura of perfection slapped us in our faces like a soft velvet glove.
Yes, perfection. The layout of the store, the incredible variety of items, outstanding in both price and quality, the overall flair of the three story store all just added additional weight to the already lowered jaw, like Mr. Universe was fishhooking you personally. Absolutely breathtaking. Did we mention variety? From watches, card games, to towels, jewelry, perfumes, pen holders, from tables to evening sweaters, wallet hermes seemed to have it all. It was quite the task to even find a handful of items, no matter how seemingly insignificant, whose prices went under the 3-digit Euro mark. There is no use to talk about the upper boundary, since there really didn’t seem to be one. And then the bags… sigh.
Strategically placed right around its main entrance, a great selection of handbags, small clutches or large totes, were presented to us in a wonderful fashion. Our eyes ran across the glass vitrines, unknowing which bag to look at first, because they all seemed so pretty, so perfect. The green tote below was one of our favorites (if any of our readers know its name, please let us know), and fortunately it happened to be showcased to the outside world. We also took a snapshot of two barrel bags that just looked plain delicious, too. At a price of over EUR 4,600, the deliciousness wore off a notch though. We ended up spending almost a good hour in the store, leaving it behind with a really sad heart, and a motivation to work harder and earn more money to buy us some wallet hermes goodies. Because afterall, who does not want to be one of those people with the orange shopping bag for once too?
The green bag is called a Bolide, and it’s one of their most classic pieces. Beautiful, no? Very similar in shape to the LV Alma bag, and I think they both came out around the same time during the 1920’s.
So perfect. So expensive.

Hello, I know the green bag is a Bolide, but a real huge size! It is mostly sold in the 31 or 27 size but this one is much bigger and frankly, not as elegant as it’s smaller friends!! xoxoxoxo

Interestingly, the wallet hermes Bolide was at one time called the “Bugatti,” perhaps about 15 years ago. I have an old “Voyage du Monde de wallet hermes” magazine with a picture and the caption of the original name. Wonder why they changed it?
Hermés renamed its Bugatti Bag into Botilde after the car company sued in the later part of the 2oth century.
I have a 70s vintage wallet hermes Kelly, brown leather and canvas. I have not seen one online and wondered at its value and if anyone knows who might restore wallet hermes bags. There is a stain on the canvas. I also have a 70s vintage black leather wallet hermes envelope that needs polishing. Would love to hear values and sources for loving care. BT
“Bugatti” is actually name of a racecar; the bag was named because the shape resembled it. However, they were sued by the car company, so they changed the name to bolide.
I wouldn’t let anyone other than Claude at wallet hermes NYC touch my bags.
Cheers!
Hi, Barbara,
Agree with Pursefiend, don’t let anyone but wallet hermes touch your bags. I’ve seen some botch jobs that ruined the resale value of the bag. Claude at wallet hermes NYC is great, but overwhelmed right now. Just dropped my bags for a cleaning and was told not to expect them for 4-6 weeks. “It’s the busy season”. So, just a heads up. Also, the resale value depends on condition, size, rarity, and the desirability factor right now. Hope this helps.

I have recently acquired what seems to be a vintage wallet hermes Bolide Bag. Right near the wallet hermes Paris embossing, there is a serial number blindstamped. (Very difficult to read) Does anyone know how I would verify authenticity and age of this bag?
Does anyone know how to put a value on a vintage allagator wallet hermes briefcase/portfolio? I just inherited it and want to insure it.

Hi, I received a wallet hermes bag as a gift from an Uncle in Europe back in the late 80’s early 90’s. It is a black alligator bag with wallet hermes Paris, Made in France embossed in gold at the top front of the bag. There are three pullman with the center section having a snap closure. All three pullman close with a belt that starts at the back of the bag and goes through the pullman and has a lock closure in the front. The lock has a large engraved H on both sides. The gold hardware on the belt is also engraved with wallet hermes Paris. A leather key holder and 2keys hang from the handle.In the front, center is a raised leather oval with the letter H made from tiny hole punches. These tiny holes also outline the oval. I was wondering what the name of the bag is and its possible value. The bag is in excellent condition and has only been used 2-3 times. Most of the time it has been store in my closet. If you have any information, Please

Quotations from second hand bags wallet hermes Christine??
Hi. I have a vintage 50s/60s Lucille de Paris alligator bag that I want to restore and sell. It needs some work. Polishing and I have to have the strap re-attached by a professional. Know of where to go- who might be interested? I’m in Brooklyn, NYC. I can’t believe what I’m seeing them go for- $45 – $1200. Same bag.

would love to see more of these wonderful bags come way down to the people with very little luxuries and if it’s the only item in there life they buy, they should be made available to the general public!
I bought a wallet hermes Paris wallet in its original Box, paper and everything indicates it is authentic, lining zipper? How can I determine if it is. I want to sell it for a cheap price since someone who had it at a yard sale obviously did not know it was worth more then what I paid for it $4.00.

Is the wallet hermes headquarters still located in the same place? The storefront looks different when I went last year! (ipad)
The wallet hermes HQ on the outside doesn’t look nearly as catchy as some of its exhibits; in fact, it looks dull. (ipad)
Definitely need to go there once. (ipad)
i bet its amazing inside (ipad)
The green bag referred to as a Bolide was previously known as the bugatti bag…. It is amazing! I picked one up a few years ago by pure luck and I love it, although I don’t think mine it is a wallet hermes because it has all of the Ettore Bugatti insignia including EB lock. I am desperately searching for any information about my version….. you can see it here: http://pepperboxcouture.wordpress.com/2012/02/05/ettore-bugatti-bagthrift-store-gem/
