Q: What size is this Hermès Kelly 32 Sellier?
A: This bag measures 32 cm wide × 23 cm high × 10 cm deep. The 32 in the model name refers to its width in centimetres.

Q: What can I fit inside this Kelly 32?
A: It should accommodate everyday essentials such as a mobile phone, purse, keys and a small cosmetics pouch, depending on their size. Its structured shape makes it important not to overfill the bag.

Q: Can I carry this bag over my shoulder or cross-body?
A: A shoulder strap is included, so you can carry it over your shoulder as well as by the top handle. The strap length is not specified in the product information, so cross-body suitability cannot be confirmed.

Q: What size is this Hermès Kelly 32 Sellier?
A: This bag measures 32 cm wide × 23 cm high × 10 cm deep. The 32 in the model name refers to its width in centimetres.

Q: What does Sellier mean, and how does it differ from Retourné?
A: Sellier construction has visible exterior stitching and sharply defined edges, giving the Kelly a structured silhouette. Retourné construction has softer, rounded edges and a more relaxed appearance. This bag is the Sellier version. ([fashionphile.com](https://www.fashionphile.com/blogs/academy/sellier-vs-retourne))

Q: What is Box leather?
A: Box is a smooth, glossy calfskin with a firm feel. It develops a patina over time, although its smooth surface can show scratches. This Kelly is black. ([hermes.com](https://www.hermes.com/us/en/product/cliquetis-bag-H086913CK89/))

Q: Can I carry this bag over my shoulder or cross-body?
A: A shoulder strap is included, so you can carry it over your shoulder as well as by the top handle. The strap length is not specified in the product information, so cross-body suitability cannot be confirmed.

Q: Which items are included with this bag?
A: The product information lists a dust bag, shoulder strap, clochette, padlock and keys. A presentation box is not listed.

Q: What condition is this vintage Kelly in?
A: This bag is rated Very Good Condition. The exterior has light marks and scratches throughout the material, the interior has light scratches, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.

Q: When was this bag made, and where?
A: The product information identifies the date stamp as an E within a square, corresponding to 2001. The country of origin is France.

Q: Is Box leather suitable for rain and everyday use?
A: Box leather requires care rather than carefree handling: its smooth surface can show scratches, and leather should be protected from rain. If it gets wet, gently wipe away moisture immediately with a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid overloading the bag and give it time to rest between uses. ([hermes.com](https://www.hermes.com/us/en/product/cliquetis-bag-H086913CK89/))

Q: How should I clean and store this Kelly?
A: Hermès advises against commercial leather-care products and recommends professional care by its craftspeople. Store the bag in its dust bag in a dry, temperate place away from direct sunlight and heat, with tissue paper inside to support its shape. Avoid attempting to remove scratches with household products. ([hermes.com](https://www.hermes.com/us/en/content/89726-leathercareinstructions/))
