Description

Best of the best – Exotic crocodile leather is a whole new level of expressing your extraordinary taste and achievement. It is the most-expensive material that Hermes offers, who’s sitting at the top of the hierarchy of luxury fashion brands. Besides their much higher entry price level (some said you have to spend at least six figures prior being offered one exotic), another reason of croc’s scarce availability is the difficulties of sourcing flawless skins that will pass H’s highest standard.

 

Niloticus crocodile leather (specially marked •• next to Hermès Paris stamp) is sourced from the Nile river region, this exotic skin is known for its bolder and larger scales. An interesting fact – the ultimate Himalaya is made from matte Niloticus!

Shiny finish is achieved by buffing to a near-mirror finish using a smooth agate stone. One of the reasons why this skin is so costly is the glossy effect is done purely by hand without using any actual gloss or glaze.

 

The Jige clutch is one of the classics of Hermès – first introduced in 1975, initially it was a wedding gift ordered by one of the Hermès family member, Jean Guerrand – the name ‘Jige’ was taken from his initials J.G!

 

Size 29cm is a light, functional clutch for day and night. The full-leather interior provides an ample space to carry your essentials like smartphone, small or long wallet, holders, key and some other small necessities.
