Hermès Plume Elan 32

Natural Ombre Salvator Lizard | Palladium Hardware

The Ultimate Expression of Collector Rarity The Plume Elan 32 is a masterwork of geometry and exotic craftsmanship. This "East-West" silhouette is a shallower, more elongated version of the classic 1960s Plume, designed for a sleek profile that transitions seamlessly from a professional briefcase aesthetic to an elegant evening companion. Rendered in Natural Ombre Lizard, this 32cm piece is a technical marvel; sourcing flawless, symmetrical skins of this size is a feat achieved only by the most senior artisans at the Hermès workshops.

Material: Natural Ombre Lizard (Salvator)

The "Ombre" finish is the most coveted iteration of the Varanus Salvator lizard. Because the skin is left in its natural state—undyed and unbleached—it must be perfect.

  • The Symmetrical "Eyes": The beauty of this bag lies in the horizontal symmetry of the lizard’s natural rings. For a 32cm expanse, multiple skins must be meticulously color-matched and pattern-aligned to create a seamless visual flow.

  • Tonal Versatility: The palette of cream, charcoal, and taupe acts as a chameleon-like neutral, making it one of the few exotic pieces that can be styled with almost any ensemble.

Design & Hardware

  • Elan Proportions: Unlike the boxier classic Plume 32, the "Elan" features a lower height and longer handles, allowing the bag to be worn comfortably over the shoulder—a rarity for Hermès top-handle designs.

     

     

  • Palladium Hardware (PHW): The cool, silvery luster of the palladium zip and interior markings provides a modern, high-contrast finish to the organic warmth of the lizard skin.
