DESCRIPTION

This vintage Hermes Constance 23 was manufacture on the 1971 and is crafted in a really soft calfskin leather. The Constance as the brand describe, It’s a bag that is timeless, the epitome of elegance in movement, a Constance that is passed on from mother to daughter. the Constance is a marvel of simplicity and contrast that has fun with its diversity. Constance rounds off its corners, gives its flap suppleness, offers two generous gussets and lets its shoulder strap run free. The contours of the H-shaped clasp curve gently into the cut-out of the flap; the secret of the Constance is its perfect roundedness. The H makes its debut appearance as an ingenious clasp. A functional design, it opened and closed with the aid of a spring-loaded mechanism concealed on each side of the bar fixed to the flap. Well-balanced and standing firmly on its two feet with an intersecting horizontal bar, this H-shaped clasp is homogeneous and harmonious. This piece It’s an urban bag with a quietly sporty spirit, a practical and casual bag for women with a confident stride; in short, a bag of its time.
