Hi! I just bought my first Hermes! I bought a lizard Kelly bag so I actually do know the leather, but I don’t know if this colour has a name. The seller described it as ‘golden’ but not sure if it’s really called that. Moslty I’m looking for tips on how to care for the lizard leather! (I wanted to start a new thread for this but I can’t seem to ). Some tips, products I should use, anyone?!

Have you had it authenticated? Bababebi is highly recommended and can often give the exact color name as well if asked during the transaction.

I haven’t! Should I? I bought it on Vestiaire Collective, which I know are not great at authenticity checks, but it also included the Hermes Spa invoice so I feel quite confident that it’s authentic. Should I doublecheck? I mostly came here for care tips on the lizard leather but open to suggestions

If you feel good about it’s authenticity then that’s good. I always like a second opinion, especially on vintage and rare pieces though. I was just suggesting it because if you needed an authentication service, bababebi can also likely tell you the exact color at the same time; two birds with one stone. :)

Not sure if this is the right place to post this but I’m trying to figure out if I’ve got the date of production right on this one. I think based on this stamp that it’s from 2016? Thanks for any info.38489D94-EFB5-42D7-B228-F8D6430531BC.jpeg

correct. 2016. my friend just told me this morning about the location of the date stamp in Plumes.
older Plumes have date stamps on the tabs located at the zipper ends, so if it's also an X, it will be 1968.

I posted in another thread before I found this one but I'm hoping someone can help me ID this color. My husband bought me this Evelyne TPM but the receipt doesn't list the color and he doesn't remember what it was. Photo is heavily edited to reflect what it looks like in real life.

The receipt should have a product number (H….) which will give the color code as the last two digits. My guess is either Bleu Zellige (I7), Bleu Frida (0F), or Mykonos (7Q).

Thanks! The receipt doesn't have a product number. I don't think it's a standard receipt because he got it at an airport store. It's certainly less detailed than the ones I've gotten from our local store.

Hi everyone,
I hope you're all doing well. :love: Maybe you can help me out with the name of a bag. I think it came out just recently. It's smaller and bascially just for your phone +lipstick? It would also be super nice if you could tell me a price, especially in Euros. Thanks in advance!!
