I did a review before for both RH CdC Kelly and orange box Kelly. It is indeed a unicorn and got me a lot attention everytime I go to Hermes store. Let me dig out the thread next.

Sorry don't know how to post link on my phone. It was the only orange box Kelly I have ever seen. I felt fortunate to grab it

Close up photos of my 2016 BBK. Since the blind date stamps are no longer being used. I wonder how would we figure out the years going forward.
What do you find best to use for moisturizing ? i recently bought a '91 BBK, sellier w ghw
there are faint lines forming on one of the lock straps and on one side of the shoulder strap. I have apple leather care conditioner but this is my first vintage item and not entirely sure what to do
id take it to spa but it looks brand new aside from the faint lines (i dont think it was used much by the collector)
thanks

This is my contribution. 1940s Princess 1 bag. I think this could be in Rough H but not sure.

That's what I thought too!!! Imagine my surprise...[emoji43][emoji38][emoji7]
I have been told by many SA that new BBK's were very rare. I was fortunate to have met a knowledgeable SA who explained the process of using heavy glass rollers to slowly flatten and roll out the leather to achieve the smooth finish, not many tanneries have such skills for this time-consuming process. I read that H in 2013 acquired a tannery recognized for producing quality box leather. Hopefully we will see more box bags.[emoji16]
Amazing to see how thick the leather appears...Close up.I have refurbished her and am please with the results. I also have a 1953 navy box Kelly.

Love to see your navy box... Can't wait
Yes the leather is very thick and buttery soft. I'll post a picture of my Kelly later.

I saw that BBK PHW...it was lovely but had a massive scratch on the front. The going rate is around 7K, more than BBK GHW sadly!
What kind of K28 do you want? There are beautiful examples popping up here and there with GHW and I'd be happy to help if I can
Thought of you when I saw this

The price is insane though.
Thank you
That bag is terribly scratched for that price! I just placed an SO for a 28 black sellier (not box sadly) so I can bide my time til either that comes in or a box Kelly shows up (or both LOL!). Meanwhile a little more raisin box meditation....the 2002 box has the same shimmer that my 2000 BBK did....ommmmmmm
