Small decorative studs adorn the front panel. It features a single leather handle designed to be carried by hand. This 1990s Mallette bag has two separate compartments. The top opens via two sliding side latches and a push button. It is made of brass and bears the "Hermes Paris" stamp in gold lettering on the leather, as well as the Hermes logo engraved beneath the push button. The interior is lined with red leather and features two large flat pockets. Its lower compartment is secured by two 24-karat gold-plated H-shaped latches; once opened, it reveals a red leather interior that can be used to safely store valuables while traveling. In the lower section, there is a hidden hook that can be locked with its original Hermès padlock, accessible only from the inside. The interior is in perfect condition, with no stains or odors. This exceptional collector’s item comes with two keys (the top key and the padlock key for the lower compartment) and two leather tassels. Its date code is an X inside a circle.
