The Many Colors of Hermes

We all love the vibrant colors that comes from the luxury brand Hermes. The Hermes brand is known for having some of the most vibrant one off colors that are very special and sometimes seasonal. Hermes hand dyes each bolt of leather and one year the same color for example Gold might be a shade or two different from the last season, which makes their leather goods even more special, as not everyone will have the exact same color bag or accessories.

With Hermes, they do come out with new colors each season, most of them are only available for that year or less. Some of them are staples including their infamous Hermes Orange, Black, White and Gold however they have an array of colors that make up the rainbow that can differ ever so slightly but have a huge impact.

As you can see above, the Hermes pink colors can differ in shades every so slightly however to the collectors they are completely different. Such as Rose Confetti is a soft mellow pink compared to the Rose Azalee which has a darker shade of pink. The pink shade of Mauve Sylvestre has more of a purple undertone to it’s shade of pink. It is all personal preference on which one you prefer more than the other. Some collectors feel that some colors are more collectible than others and some will go up in value more such as a Rose Sakura - which they are not wrong about however it is in the eye of the beholder.

We love when Hermes comes out with the new colors for the new season as it is a surprise to everyone and to see them in person can be a lot different than they appear in photos. These chameleon of colors makes these Hermes pieces very special and very collectible.
