Crocodile Handbag, Hermès Paris, c1950s

Exceptionally rare and beautiful Hermès handbag. Crafted in glossy black crocodile with alluring gold hardware. The chic handle terminates in brass brackets attaching it seamlessly to the body of the bag. Truly one of the most unusual Hermès bags we've ever seen, with classic lines that make feel modern. Despite being over 60 years old, the crocodile skins are still soft and supple and the fitted lambskin interior is perfection. A wonderful time capsule of unmatched craftsmanship that only Hermès can produce. Measures approximately 10x6x2" and in wonderful vintage condition.
