WOW!!!! You have 2 bags on my wish list - the Rouge H and the Raisin but they are all GORGEOUS!
Such gorgeousness! It always surprises me how much bigger a 28 sellier looks than a retourne in the same size. Love that raisin, and that Rouge H! I can hardly believe its from 1977!
Juliet !!!! Drop dead gorgeous collection!
Thank you all so much for indulging me! I am just crazy for this leather, love it so much. It really is funny how the sellier style looks so much bigger than the retourne because of its rigidity. They really have the same dimensions, but the softness of the retourne style and its curves and folds make it a much smaller bag somehow. Here are a few comparisons.
But back to box leather….how much do we love thee?

You have the most beautiful kelly 28, in box, no less, in all classic and timeless color. What a beautiful collection.
Congrats !
I finally found my HG after years of looking... 28 cm Raisin Box Kelly PHW.
She was worth the wait....

This is a WOW Kelly indeed!!!
My two box Kelly bags.
I am so crazy about box leather that it's the only leather I would buy for Hermès bags. I've neve took in consideration any other leather. Box for me is pure lust...
BTW how is the situation for new orders in box? Do they allow to order bags in this leather? And how is the choice of colors? Rich or limited to basic shades?
Great collection!
