Epsom Kelly Sellier 25 Anemone

The Hermès Kelly Sellier 25 in Anemone Epsom Leather is a highly sought-after “quota bag” that pairs the bag’s most popular structural size with a vibrant, royal purple hue. The Sellier construction (with external stitching) provides a sharp, trapezoidal silhouette that resists slouching and is considered more formal than the “Retourne” style.

Core Design & Material

• Material (Epsom): A heat-pressed, machine-printed calfskin known for its rigid structure, scratch resistance, and water-repellent properties. It is the ideal leather for the Sellier style, as its firmness holds the bag’s geometric shape perfectly over time.

• Color (Anemone): Introduced in 2014, Anemone (Color Code: P9) is a vivid purple with pink undertones. In Epsom leather, the color remains strikingly saturated and consistent, resisting the darkening or patina that can affect smoother leathers.

• Signature Hardware: Most frequently paired with Gold Hardware (GHW) for a warm, regal look. 

• Interior: Lined in matching Anemone Chevre (goatskin) leather, featuring one zippered pocket and one open slip pocket.

Specifications & Capacity

• Dimensions: Approximately 25 cm W x 19 cm H x 9 cm D (9.8″ x 7.5″ x 3.5″).

• Strap & Carry: Includes a detachable shoulder strap with a drop of roughly 16.5 inches, alongside a structured top handle with a 3.5-inch drop.

• What Fits: The 25cm size is considered the modern “perfect” size; it fits a large smartphone, a long wallet (like the Béarn), keys, a compact, and a small hand sanitizer.
