The world-renowned Sac-\u00e0-Dep\u00eaches had been launched into stardom by the actress Grace Kelly just three years prior. Many primarily unrecognized designers had worked in the Herm\u00e8s ateliers up until this point, yet one would stand out from the crowd this year. In Mr. Dumas-Herm\u00e8s\u2019s employ was an illustrious designer by the name of Catherine Chaillet, who had just given birth to her fifth child, a girl by the name of Constance. To commemorate this celebratory event, Catherine decided to name one of her handbag designs after the child, a recently designed model with a flap top, adjustable shoulder strap, and an \u201cH\u201d buckle closure. Thus, the bag became officially known as the Herm\u00e8s Constance.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;27px|||||&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; max_width=&#8221;750px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||21px|||&#8221; text_font=&#8221;MaisonNeue-Book||||||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_letter_spacing=&#8221;0.44px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;26px&#8221; header_font=&#8221;Canela-Thin||||||||&#8221; header_font_size=&#8221;48px&#8221; header_letter_spacing=&#8221;0.5px&#8221; header_line_height=&#8221;56px&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;Canela-Thin||||||||&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;24px&#8221; header_2_letter_spacing=&#8221;1.5px&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_3_font=&#8221;Canela-Thin||||||||&#8221; header_3_font_size=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_3_letter_spacing=&#8221;1.5px&#8221; header_3_line_height=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_6_font=&#8221;MaisonNeue-Demi||||||||&#8221; header_6_font_size=&#8221;13px&#8221; header_6_letter_spacing=&#8221;1.5px&#8221; header_6_line_height=&#8221;23px&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px|||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"article-title\" style=\"text-align: center;\">The Rise of The Constance<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-blurb\">The Herm\u00e8s Constance garnered much success in the years following its inception, having caught the eye of many a celebrity of the day. The bag was seen time and time again in the arms of then First Lady Jacqueline Lee Kennedy and slowly gained traction as a staple handbag in Herm\u00e8s\u2019s repertoire.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-blurb\">The original Constance bags were done only in classic Box Calf leather or Porosus Crocodile (as this was the only crocodile skin they were sourcing at the time) and finished with gold hardware. Since then, the bag has been offered in a variety of materials, hardware trappings, and sizes. It is reported to take between 14-18 hours of work by a single craftsman to create one Constance, a testament to its quality and longevity. The Constance bag has been reinterpreted with each passing decade, and will likely continue to do so in the years to come.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;27px|||||&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; max_width=&#8221;750px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||21px|||&#8221; text_font=&#8221;MaisonNeue-Book||||||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_letter_spacing=&#8221;0.44px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;26px&#8221; header_font=&#8221;Canela-Thin||||||||&#8221; header_font_size=&#8221;48px&#8221; header_letter_spacing=&#8221;0.5px&#8221; header_line_height=&#8221;56px&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;Canela-Thin||||||||&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;24px&#8221; header_2_letter_spacing=&#8221;1.5px&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_3_font=&#8221;Canela-Thin||||||||&#8221; header_3_font_size=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_3_letter_spacing=&#8221;1.5px&#8221; header_3_line_height=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_6_font=&#8221;MaisonNeue-Demi||||||||&#8221; header_6_font_size=&#8221;13px&#8221; header_6_letter_spacing=&#8221;1.5px&#8221; header_6_line_height=&#8221;23px&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px|||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"article-title\" style=\"text-align: center;\">Constance Sizing Breakdown<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-blurb\">Over the many decades, the Constance bag has been in production, Herm\u00e8s has introduced many sizing variations to best suit their client\u2019s requirements.

Marquetry is a technique of inlay that has existed since the 16th century, involving the inlay of precious or exotic materials in wooden furniture, flooring, and other d\u00e9cor. Other Constance lines over the years have implemented an inlay on the boucle (French for buckle), however, the Marquette is unique in that the inlay is done specifically in Varanus Niloticus lizard, where other lines are inlaid with leather or enamel lacquer. This stunning combination of lizard and either alligator or Tadelakt leather comes in a variety of preset color combinations that are repeated throughout the line, making this bag a natural collectible.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.0&#8243;

The design was done in two colorways, one of which is done in a bright and colorful color-block scheme, dubbed the \u201cOn A Summer Day\u201d Constance. The other, done in varying shades of black, mirrors the same design but with a darker nocturnal twist. This one, aptly named \u201cOn A Summer Night\u201d, closes the circle on this impeccable pair of Constance bags.

To commemorate their growth and contributions to French equestrian sports, Herm\u00e8s produced this line of minimalist plaid in a limited edition canvas, exclusive to the Constance bag line.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;27px|||||&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;MaisonNeue-Book||||||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_letter_spacing=&#8221;0.44px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;26px&#8221; header_font=&#8221;Canela-Thin||||||||&#8221; header_font_size=&#8221;48px&#8221; header_letter_spacing=&#8221;0.5px&#8221; header_line_height=&#8221;56px&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;Canela-Thin||||||||&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;24px&#8221; header_2_letter_spacing=&#8221;1.5px&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_3_font=&#8221;Canela-Thin||||||||&#8221; header_3_font_size=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_3_letter_spacing=&#8221;1.5px&#8221; header_3_line_height=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_6_font=&#8221;MaisonNeue-Demi||||||||&#8221; header_6_font_size=&#8221;13px&#8221; header_6_letter_spacing=&#8221;1.5px&#8221; header_6_line_height=&#8221;23px&#8221; max_width=&#8221;750px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||21px|||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px|||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"article-sub-header\" style=\"text-align: center;\">The D\u00e9cha\u00een\u00e9e Constance<\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;http:\/\/rebag.com\/thevault\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/HH-EC-062518-1-1.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;Hermes Constance 101 D\u00e9cha\u00een\u00e9e&#8221; title_text=&#8221;D\u00e9cha\u00een\u00e9e Constance&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; max_width=&#8221;600px&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; min_height=&#8221;138px&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;23px|||||&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; max_width=&#8221;750px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||21px|||&#8221; text_font=&#8221;MaisonNeue-Book||||||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_letter_spacing=&#8221;0.44px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;26px&#8221; header_font=&#8221;Canela-Thin||||||||&#8221; header_font_size=&#8221;48px&#8221; header_letter_spacing=&#8221;0.5px&#8221; header_line_height=&#8221;56px&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;Canela-Thin||||||||&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;24px&#8221; header_2_letter_spacing=&#8221;1.5px&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_3_font=&#8221;Canela-Thin||||||||&#8221; header_3_font_size=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_3_letter_spacing=&#8221;1.5px&#8221; header_3_line_height=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_6_font=&#8221;MaisonNeue-Demi||||||||&#8221; header_6_font_size=&#8221;13px&#8221; header_6_letter_spacing=&#8221;1.5px&#8221; header_6_line_height=&#8221;23px&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px|||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-blurb\">Along with the Birkin and Kelly lines, the Constance bag also received a D\u00e9cha\u00een\u00e9e printed canvas upgrade in 2017.

All done in Ch\u00e8vre leathers, this idea was also introduced to the Constance line during this time. Some of the rarest handbags that Herm\u00e8s ever offered, these Constance bags are highly sought after and rarely relinquished in the secondary market. If you are lucky enough to attain one in your collection, these bags have notable staying power as well as monetary value retention.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;27px|||||&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||21px|||&#8221; text_font=&#8221;MaisonNeue-Book||||||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_letter_spacing=&#8221;0.44px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;26px&#8221; header_font=&#8221;Canela-Thin||||||||&#8221; header_font_size=&#8221;48px&#8221; header_letter_spacing=&#8221;0.5px&#8221; header_line_height=&#8221;56px&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;Canela-Thin||||||||&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;24px&#8221; header_2_letter_spacing=&#8221;1.5px&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_3_font=&#8221;Canela-Thin||||||||&#8221; header_3_font_size=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_3_letter_spacing=&#8221;1.5px&#8221; header_3_line_height=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_6_font=&#8221;MaisonNeue-Demi||||||||&#8221; header_6_font_size=&#8221;13px&#8221; header_6_letter_spacing=&#8221;1.5px&#8221; header_6_line_height=&#8221;23px&#8221; max_width=&#8221;750px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px|||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"article-sub-header\" style=\"text-align: center;\">The Brazil II Constance<\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/rebag.com\/thevault\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/hermes-constance-mini-brasil-mangue-limited-edition-new-front_1024x1024.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;Hermes Constance 101 Brazil II&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Brazil II Constance&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; max_width=&#8221;600px&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; max_width=&#8221;750px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||21px|||&#8221; text_font=&#8221;MaisonNeue-Book||||||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_letter_spacing=&#8221;0.44px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;26px&#8221; header_font=&#8221;Canela-Thin||||||||&#8221; header_font_size=&#8221;48px&#8221; header_letter_spacing=&#8221;0.5px&#8221; header_line_height=&#8221;56px&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;Canela-Thin||||||||&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;24px&#8221; header_2_letter_spacing=&#8221;1.5px&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_3_font=&#8221;Canela-Thin||||||||&#8221; header_3_font_size=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_3_letter_spacing=&#8221;1.5px&#8221; header_3_line_height=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_6_font=&#8221;MaisonNeue-Demi||||||||&#8221; header_6_font_size=&#8221;13px&#8221; header_6_letter_spacing=&#8221;1.5px&#8221; header_6_line_height=&#8221;23px&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px|||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-blurb\">In 2014, Herm\u00e8s took another scarf design and reimagined it for the Constance bag.

The Birkin and Kelly bags have long been staples of customization from Herm\u00e8s, being produced in bicolor, tricolor, multi-material, contrast stitching, custom pockets, and more!

This example is replete with 150 hand-set VVS F-color diamonds on the pontets and the boucle set in 18-carat gold. Although the diamond placement has varied through the years, this example is the most decadent with an exterior done in Shiny Bleu Jean Porosus Crocodile with a contrasting Orange H Ch\u00e8vre leather interior.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-centered-blurb\">The Constance bag comes in all shapes, colors, patterns, and materials, which makes for a seemingly personalized handbag that feels as though it was designed just for you.
