Over the summer, we survived the universally dreaded exercise known as an office relocation, moving boxes after boxes of books, catalogues, equipment, and personal belongings from Alexandra House to The Henderson, our marvelous new Asian headquarter in Hong Kong.
The most precious cargo of all is the collection of beautiful, rare and unique bags by Hermès, Chanel and Louis Vuitton, which we have sourced from all over the world for our debut auction at our new saleroom on October 28.
This includes an Hermès Birkin 25 crafted from shiny Vert Céladon niloticus crocodile, extremely rare and the first of its kind to appear at Christie’s. Its elegant light green colour beautifully evokes the allure of antique celadon.
We also brought over a complete collection of the whimsically fabulous Faubourg Birkins, and a Himalaya crocodile diamond Kelly, the ultimate prize for Hermès connoisseurs.
Along with beautiful bags and office effects, we also packed something special and more personal, namely, collective memory from our decade at Alexandra House and the Convention Centre: the comraderies and can-do spirit of the team, moments of passionate bidding, the exhilaration of new price records, the opportunity of driving the growth and witnessing the maturity of this market. Last but not least, the privilege of meeting handbag lovers and collectors near and far, many of whom have become long-standing friends.
The experience has been invaluable, the satisfaction immeasurable. I wish I could put all that in a bottle to keep and cherish forever.
So, thank you Alexandra House, for a decade of dreams and magic, eager and ready to be remade at The Henderson.
And to all my fellow handbag enthusiasts, my heartfelt thanks to you for your support and friendship, which continue to inspire us to run the extra mile.

The Himalaya handbag is crafted from Niloticus crocodile. The designation “Himalaya” does not apply to the origin of the bag, but rather to the delicate gradation of the colour. The smoky grey fades into a pearly white, resembling the majestic, snowcapped Himalaya mountain ranges. The dyeing process is extremely demanding and time-consuming, and exponentially more difficult as the shades lighten. It takes great skill and a fine eye to create the immaculate white of the snow and the gradation to rocky grey. As the Hermès Himalaya bags frequently broke the world records in the salesroom, its grey and white palette has become more iconic.
How is this classic gradation achieved?
In the early 1990s, Hermès developed a new glossy ombré crocodile leather called “Vert Céladon” using advanced dyeing techniques. Its elegant light green colour is beautifully transformed by the glossy finish to reveals different shades of green under the light, evoking the allure of antique celadon. This colour is deemed to have paved the way for Hermès’ Himalaya dyeing technique.
Vert Céladon 鱷魚皮包的店鋪販售時間約在 1994 年至 2008 年之 間，最後一批 Vert Céladon 鱷魚皮手袋於 2008 年出產。由於新 款的愛馬仕喜馬拉雅柏金包悄然問世，因此 Vert Céladon 鱷魚皮 手袋隨之停產。自此，藏家只能在市面上尋覓這款珍稀的鱷魚皮手 袋。25 公分的 Vert Céladon 鱷魚皮柏金包更是首次現身拍賣，讓 無數藏家翹首以盼，渴望一睹其真容，並將其納入收藏之中。
The Vert Céladon crocodile bags had been available in Hermès boutiques since 1994, and the last batch was produced in 2008. The style was then discontinued with the release of the new Hermès Himalaya Birkin. Since then, collectors have been eagerly looking for this rare model in the market. As the Vert Céladon Himalaya Birkin 25 is going to make its debut in the salesroom, collectors worldwide cannot wait to admire it in person and be the next lucky owner. ≈78 A RARE & EXCEPTIONAL, SHINY VERT CÉLADON NILOTICUS CROCODILE BIRKIN 25 WITH PALLADIUM HARDWARE

The autumn of 2024 will mark the 10th anniversary of Christie’s Hong Kong Handbags & Accessories Sale. The last decade has witnessed many new records made by an impressive selection of Himalaya crocodile bags offered at Christie’s.
In 2008, the first ombré Hermès Himalaya Birkin 30 was introduced, with a beautiful gradation evoking the majestic, snowcapped Himalayas. In the autumn of 2020, the most expensive Hermès Himalaya Kelly 25 was sold for HK$3,375,000 at Christie’s Hong Kong, breaking the world record of any Himalaya crocodile bags. Subsequently, in 2021, the Himalaya Crocodile Diamond Kelly 28 fetched a record-breaking HK$4,000,000 at Christie’s Hong Kong during the autumn sale, making it the most valuable handbag set with diamonds ever sold at auction. The Himalaya Birkin 30 offered by Christie’s Hong Kong at the 2020 spring sale also made a new record at HK$1,625,000.
Paying tribute to these three important milestones in the history of the Himalaya crocodile bags and celebrating the highly anticipated season, Christie’s Hong Kong is pleased to present three iconic Himalaya creations at the Handbags & Accessories Sale at The Henderson, its new Asia Pacific headquarters.
為了向喜馬拉雅鱷魚皮發展史上的這三個重要時刻致敬，並慶祝本季 的盛會，佳士得香港精心挑選了這三件最具代表性的喜馬拉雅手袋精 品，於亞太區新總部 The Henderson 舉辦的首場手袋及配飾拍賣中 隆重展出。

THE FABULOUS FOUR
In 2019, Hermès unveiled the limited-edition Faubourg Birkin 20 featuring the Sellier stitching and leather marquetry that vividly portrays the façade of the legendary Hermès Faubourg Saint-Honoré flagship, including the details of the awnings. This model, affectionately known as the “little house”, instantly won the hearts of collectors worldwide for its artistry and rarity.
Initially available in day (brown) and night (deep blue), two new versions dedicated to the snowy season (white) and midnight (black) of Paris were introduced in 2021. As a highlight, each “little house” bag includes a mini Hermès shopping bag in orange leather instead of the traditional Birkin bag charm.
The four exceptional Hermès bags embody the house’s spirit and innovative style, making them the coveted targets sought after by many collectors who want to complete their collections.

In 2023, a Matte Pink 5P Alligator Mini Kelly 20 II became the most expensive Alligator Mini Kelly ever sold at Christie’s auction when it achieved HK$1.386 million at Christie’s Spring sales in Hong Kong. This season, Christie’s Hong Kong presents an even more stunning piece: a two-tone Pink 5P & Gris Perle Alligator Mini Kelly 20 II adorned with the horseshoe stamp exclusive to custom Hermès bags! Combining two of the most coveted shades of Hermès alligator leather, the stylish colour combination will undoubtedly make it one of the world’s most sought-after Mini Kellys, while its rarity and exclusivity further adds to its timeless appeal.
Many handbag collectors look forward to finding the rarest and most precious models at the Christies’ annual sales.
The first highlight is a custom Fringe Birkin, which was discontinued and can only be found at auction. The colourful leather fringes not only showcase the unrivalled dyeing and cutting techniques that Hermès takes pride in, but also give the classic Birkin a fun and playful twist.
The second highlight is a limited-edition Golf Kelly bag. The Scottish kiltie shoes with a leather front panel are traditionally worn during golf games to help walking on muddy roads. This design pays homage to this tradition by embedding a leather panel into the surface of the Kelly, mimicking the construction of the kiltie golfing shoes.
Creative and enchanting, these bags are the musthave styles for collectors who appreciate rare and exclusive designs.

The Kelly Pochette, a notable addition to the Kelly collection, was envisioned by Jean Paul Gaultier during his time as Creative Director of Hermès in Autumn/Winter 2004. Renowned for his ability to reimagine Hermès classics with a distinctive flair, Gaultier infused his creations with a unique charm. Despite its compact size, the Kelly Pochette is surprising spacious, and features a lighter and more practical fabrication without the traditional bottom studs.

THE MAGICAL FIVE
The Hermès Picnic collection was inspired by the Hermès annual theme of 2011: Hermès, Contemporary Artisan. Launched in early 2019 as a mini Kelly, it further introduced a Birkin version in 2021, both garnered much attention from handbags collectors immediately. Crafted by wicker and leather artisans, the collection inspired by nature combines ingenious design with breathtaking attention to detail. Since its debut over a decade ago, this classic yet innovative collection has remained in the spotlight as one of the favourites.

In 2024, Hermès introduced a gilded shade called “Doré”, which means everything glittering with a golden sheen. The suppleness and natural glossy finish of the premium Chamkilight Goatskin leather perfectly accentuate the allure of the dazzling gold hue. The opulent colour also enlivens the cooler seasons with a sense of warmth and luxury, giving any look a vibrant twist.
This eye-catching shade is now only available in Mini Kelly, Constance and certain small leather goods. Many Hermès collectors are fascinated not only by the timeless appeal of Doré, but also by its rarity.
Hermès is known for its rich and exquisite colours, including unique shades rarely used by other brands. The launch of Doré is an excellent example that demonstrates the house’s relentless pursuit of colour precision, as well as its commitment to and passion for unrivalled dyeing techniques.
Each of these carefully developed shades of white is a testament to Hermès’ vision of elegance and style, offering the tasteful crowd with a wealth of choices.
Béton: As one of the early white colour launched by Hermès, this hue was inspired by the light grey colour of cement. Also known as ‘Glacier White’, the greyish white tone evokes the shimmering reflection of a glacier in the sun.
Craie: Launched in the AW2013 collection, Carie is a white shade with a hint of light grey and the softness of chalk. Within Hermès’ wide spectrum of white shades, it remains the most popular option.
Nata: Launched in the AW2019 collection, its name comes from the Spanish of ‘cream’. It is bright and warm as ivory. The dark brown trim further highlights the depth and ethereal appeal of the shade.
Mushroom: This colour launched in 2022 reminds us of a white mushroom in the morning fog. With a cool undertone, it is a versatile shade with endless possibilities and complements various looks nicely.
Gris Pale: Launched in 2023, this is an elegant, delicate and charming tone between white and grey.

In 2023, Louis Vuitton launched its second collaboration with Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama, aiming to reinvent the maison’s signature designs through her unique artistic perspective.
The pumpkin, the central motif of this capsule collection, embodies the creative philosophy of the artist. As the symbol of optimism, serenity and joy, the iconic pumpkin motif can be traced back to her childhood, and is considered one of her most important and comforting subjects. For Kusama, art is a means of “self-obliteration”. The creative process allows her to return to the infinity of eternal time and space.

Its unique blend of rich red leather and intricately woven osier evokes a perfect balance of modern luxury and timeless craftsmanship. The palladium hardware adds a sleek, contemporary touch, while its compact size enhances its charm.

The auctioneer may vary the increments during the course of the auction at his or her own discretion.
The auctioneer will take reasonable steps to carry out written bids at the lowest possible price, taking into account the reserve. Written bids submitted on “no reserve” lots will, in the absence of a higher bid, be executed at approximately 50% of the low estimate or at the amount of the bid if it is less than 50% of the low estimate.
