Gee,

Does this mean Hermes will not be producing Kelly bags in boxcalf either?

I am very lucky to score from FSH (my first time there) an O stamp toundra box sellier Kelly 28 GHW a few days ago. So, they are still producing them :)

they're all such beauties! It is almost impossible to find a new box kelly nowadays?

It is not a mission impossible! I was very lucky a few days ago especially I don't get to visit any boutiques in person, perhaps merely once or twice per year! Keep your hope high!

Ceci,
Wow, congratulations. I was told by my SM that H only produces 250 pcs of box bags per year. To score an iconic BBK from the mothership is a miracle of its own!

I am sure u hv a super memorable time in Paris!

Wow! Really! I still can't believe my luck too. I didn't expect at all especially I read many stories on TPF before. I just know that I would love to have a K25/28 in boxcalf. In fact, I haven't seen any in real life neither! Maybe I am just really lucky. It's my first time going to FSH. First day, I was shown a RC lindy 30. I was so tempted but I kept telling myself I should wait for K25/28. Went back again on the second day hoping for a Kelly. SA said sold out in the beginning, but then SA checked the computer again & brought out a K28 toundra in GHW! I just realize it's more expensive for box calf & with sellier style. But how much more normally?

Oooh, Toundra box! I saw a HAC in that color/leather years ago at FSH, and still kick myself for not getting it! Congratulations!

I want to get a Black box Birkin, what color of HW looks better? Also is that very hard to get? Thanks

Oh, you would look amazing in either hardware! If you prefer a classic look, I recommend going with gold hardware. I find Palladium hardware to have a more modern look. Hope this helps!
