Hermès started crafting bags with just a “touch” of exotic leather in Birkin, Kelly, Picotins and Baton de Craies. These bags are considered “Limited Edition” for Hermès and are quite rare - with the "Touch Birkin" considered as the most iconic of them all. In most cases, the Touch Birkin has “touches” of exotic leather—either crocodile or alligator—on the flap, sangles, handles, and clochette while the rest of the Birkin remains either Togo leather or Novillo leather.

For the current lot, the Vert Rousseau togo leather is paired with shiny Niloticus crocodile leather, one of the few releases of Touch Birkins in this combination and color.

The Kelly bag came to success when it was first photographed donned by Princess Grace Kelly in 1956 as an attempt to hide her baby bump. Her name became so linked to the bag that Hermes renamed the “Sac à Dépêches” bag to “Kelly” in 1977. This was the start of the story we all know. Since then, the Kelly has been updated once in 2000. The Kelly II, released in 2000 as an update to the original Kelly, has a double ring at the top handle, designed to attach to a shoulder strap.

This bag, defined as “simple and perfectly made”, exists in many combinations of leathers (around 20) and countless colors.

Created in eight different sizes ranging from 15 to 50cm, every bag requires 20 hours of work. As is the case for other Hermes products, the Kelly bag is handmade by an unique craftsman throughout the whole process.

HERMÈS

Hermès International S.A., or simply Hermès, is a French luxury goods manufacturer established in 1837. It specializes in leather goods, lifestyle accessories, home furnishings, perfumery, jewelry, watches, and ready-to-wear. Its logo, a Duc carriage with the horse, has been the insignia of the brand since the 1950s. Founded by Thierry Hermès, the company started as a harness workshop servicing noblemen, creating high-quality wrought harnesses and bridles for the carriage trade. Hermès's son, Charles-Émile, took over management from his father in 1880 and moved the shop to 24 rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, where it remains.The family-run business introduced saddlery and started selling their product retail catering to the elites of Europe, North Africa, Russia, Asia, and the Americas. In 1920, they added accessories and clothing collections to their growing product list.

Measurements are given as Height x Width x Depth in decimal inches (rationalized to the closest 0.25, 0.5, 0.75) and in decimal centimetres.Artiana encourages all potential Buyers to inspect each item carefully before Bidding.

3.2. Any statements made by Artiana about any Property(ies), whether orally or in writing concerning attribution to, for example, any school of art or craftsmanship, country or origin, history or provenance, are only expressions of Artiana’s own opinion or belief.

Such opinions or beliefs including the estimate values of the properties have been formed honestly in accordance with the standard of care expected of an auction house. However, Artiana does not in anyway represent that it has carried out exhaustive research or analysis, and it is therefore recommended, especially in cases of Property(ies) of high value, that potential Buyers seek advice on such matters from their own professional advisors.

3.3. The Buyer undertakes: • to inspect and satisfy himself prior to the Auction as to the condition and description of the Property(ies); • to rely on his own judgment as to whether the Property(ies) matches its description; and • to not rely on an illustration of any Property(ies) given in the Catalogue 3.4. Neither Artiana nor any of its affiliates, agents, representatives, employees or directors shall be liable for errors or omissions in any of the representations made in the Auction Catalogue or otherwise with respect to authenticity, description, or condition of any Property(ies) for sale through the Auction.

4.1. Artiana provides an assurance on behalf of the Seller that each artwork offered at auction, is a genuine work of the artist listed.

Artiana guarantees the authenticity of such artwork for a period of six months from the auction closing date.Authenticity in relation to artworks shall mean compliance of the artwork with the description provided on the website, particularly with reference to the name of the artist, title (if any) of the artwork, date, the school of art (if mentioned), dimensions, medium, etc.

In the unlikely event that within six months from the close of an auction, it is proved by the Buyer, to the reasonable satisfaction of Artiana, that the item was not authentic and if, in Artiana’s opinion, this would have significantly impacted the Winning Bid for the item, Artiana shall be entitled to rescind the sale. In such an event, the Seller will be liable to refund the payment for the item to the Buyer,

through Artiana. The item in question will subsequently be returned to the Seller.

All such claims will be handled on a case-by-case basis, and in the case of an authenticity claim in relation to an artwork, examinable proof, clearly demonstrating that the item is not authentic, will be required. Such examinable proof should be provided by an established and acknowledged authority. Artiana’s decision, with regards to such claims, shall be final and binding.

4.2. The above guarantee given in clause 4.1 shall be subject to the following conditions: • The claim is made by the Buyer as registered with Artiana (the benefit of the claim is not assignable to any subsequent owners or others who may acquire or have an interest in any of the Properties) • The Property is returned in the same condition that it was in at the time of delivery of the Property to the Buyer • The Property was indisputably purchased through Artiana 4.3.

All colored stones unless certified may or may not be treated for enhancements. It is therefore advisable for Buyers or potential Buyers of such Properties, to inspect the Property prior to Bidding or prior to shipment or Buyer pickup from Artiana.

In the unlikely event that during such inspection, the Buyer is able to prove to the reasonable satisfaction of Artiana that the Property does not match the details in the Description, and if, in Artiana’s opinion, Bidders being aware of such error or omission would have Bid significantly less than the actual Sale Price, Artiana shall be entitled to rescind the sale and the Seller will be liable to refund to the Buyer the Sale Price paid for the Property; and Artiana shall hand over the Property to the Seller upon refund of the Sale Price paid to him for the Property. Once Artiana obtains the refunded amount from the Seller, it shall forward the same to the Buyer.This guarantee will not be applicable where the Property is being shipped to the Buyer

by Artiana.

4.4. In the case of Properties such as antiquities or items of historical interest which have been categorised by Artiana as Cultural Artifacts, Artiana provides an assurance, on behalf of the Seller, that each object of antiquarian or historical interest or significance has been acquired without violating any local or international laws.

In the unlikely event that it is proved that the acquisition, provenance and/or ownership of such Cultural Artifacts offered at our Auction is subject to a legal dispute, the Buyer shall keep Artiana indemnified from any such legal proceedings.

4.5. In all cases Artiana retains the right to consult with, at the expense of the Buyer, up to two recognized experts in the field (such experts being mutually acceptable to Artiana and the Buyer), to examine the Property under question before deciding to rescind the sale and offer the refund under the above guarantee.The opinion of the experts shall not be binding on Artiana.

4.6. In the event of the Seller’s failure to refund the proceeds as stated in this clause, the Buyer shall return the Property to Artiana and authorise Artiana as its agent to initiate legal proceedings against the Seller.Any such steps taken or legal proceedings instituted by Artiana, against the Seller, shall be at the cost of the Buyer and Artiana’s liability shall be limited as per Clause 5.1.

5.1. Artiana has an obligation to refund the Sale Price to the Buyer only upon recovery of such amounts from the Seller and in the circumstances described in Clause 4 above (Authenticity Guarantee).

The Buyer indemnifies Artiana from any non-recovery of such amounts and agrees that they shall not hold Artiana responsible in case such amounts are not recoverable from the Seller. Artiana provides insurance coverage on sold Lots for seven days after the Closing Time of the auction.After that period, or once a Lot has been collected (whichever is earlier), the Lot will be entirely at the buyer’s risk. Damages, losses or loss in value of any artworks (including frames) incurred during shipping and transit are not covered as per the insurance policy taken by Artiana. In case the Buyer opts for transit insurance coverage arranged for by Artiana by any of their insurance providers,Artiana shall not entertain any direct claims for damage or loss during shipping and transit and these would have to be directed to such insurance providers; Subject to the authenticity guarantee above, neither Artiana’s suppliers nor Artiana, nor any of Artiana’s employees or agents, shall be responsible, either for the correctness of any statements as to the authorship, origin, date, age, attributes or genuineness of any Property in the sale, or for any mistakes in the Description, or for any faults or defects in the Properties, or for any other act or omission, whatsoever.Artiana offers no guarantee or warranty other than the limited assurance contained in the authenticity guarantee above.

5.2. It is stated and agreed that the rescission of the sale and the refund of the total Sale Price paid by the Buyer is the sole remedy that may be sought by a Buyer, and such remedy is exclusive and in lieu of any other remedy which may otherwise be available under law.
