I’d love to hear about or, even better, to see pics of any H novelty bags out there. Obviously the brand is known for its timeless classics, but Hermès also seems to have such a fun, whimsical side. I would define novelty as a design with humor or lightheartedness that ran either in limited quantities or for a limited time. For example, the sac a malice comes to mind.

Are the micro bags considered novelties?
I asked my SA about it recently and the (disappointing! unacceptable! do-you-know-who-I-am!) answer was... “if it was a Horizon special order, it can’t be reproduced”Same! If I won the lottery I'd have to have it
It’s the second apple of knowledge: once you know about it, you can’t forget it!
Oh my goodness... this is incredible! When was it produced?Sac à pomme is probably the most whimsical bag they have made.

Some time around 2003-2005, I believe. At least that’s when I first heard of this!
Sorry if I should know but please educate me, what’s a Horizon special order?I asked my SA about it recently and the (disappointing! unacceptable! do-you-know-who-I-am!) answer was... “if it was a Horizon special order, it can’t be reproduced”

The whimsical hook creating a raised eyebrow aside, the bucket head bag is a bit S&M.
I wouldn’t want any of these. Sorry, not meaning to cause offence to anyone who likes them of course!
Horizon is the fully bespoke service H offers. Not just for bags, but for anything you can imagine... from commissioning a custom item like this apple carrier to upholstering a car or yacht.
