Hermès Constance 18 Gris Perle Matte Alligator — Buy Now

This is the Hermès Constance 18 Gris Perle, photographed here and available now. Every detail below describes this exact piece.

The Hermès Constance 18 Gris Perle Matte Alligator Palladium is for sale as a one-off piece. The Constance is built around the oversized H clasp, which is the closure and the entire visual statement at once. It is Hermes’ hardest bag to source after the Birkin and Kelly, and it is almost never available at boutique without history.

The 18 is the reference Constance and the size most buyers are waiting on. It takes a phone, a cardholder and little else, which has never slowed demand. Matte alligator carries large, even scales finished without gloss, and it is graded far more strictly than any calfskin. Palladium is a bright, cool silver that will not tarnish.

It carries the signature H snap closure, an adjustable strap, open interior pockets and tonal stitching.

Condition is stated as New.

About this Hermès Constance 18 Gris Perle

We list one Hermès Constance 18 Gris Perle and nothing here restocks. Just as important, the palladium hardware sets the tone of the whole piece. As a result, what we photograph is exactly what arrives. However, if the proportions are wrong for you, Hermès Constance 18 Carbone Chevre Mysore sits close to it, as does Pre-Owned Hermès Constance 18 Bubblegum Epsom Palladium, and our Constance collection holds the rest, alongside Handbags. Finally, ask us for extra photographs if anything is unclear.

Condition, authentication and care

Authentication happens here, in house, before we photograph or price anything. As a result, the grade reads new because that is what the piece is. However, we would rather lose a sale than overstate one. Because matte alligator shows handling differently from other materials, keep it away from heat and direct sun when it is not being worn. In addition, the same eyes check every piece that leaves here — see the questions we are asked most.

Shipping is on us: insured, tracked and worldwide. As a result the only variable left is duty, which depends on your country — VAT, duty and the true landed cost sets out how it lands.
