The interplay of dark blue cotton canvas and brown leather trim defines this
structured tote, whose silhouette is softened by a gentle drape at the side panels.
Silver-tone snap closures adorn the top edge, offering both security and
a subtle sheen, while reinforcing the bag’s practical, utilitarian character. The
absence of a visible logo keeps the lines clean, drawing attention
instead to the contrast in materials and the crisp geometry of the side gussets.

Dual rolled leather straps allow for both handheld and over-the-shoulder carry,
framing an open top that secures with a central silver-tone snap. The interior
is lined in black fabric and features a single zippered pocket, accommodating the
essentials for daily use. The base is reinforced for structural support, with silver-tone
feet completing the functional detailing.

This example closely resembles the Hermès Garden Party model, a design first
introduced in the mid-1990s as the house’s take on the everyday tote. Its
understated construction and lack of overt branding are characteristic of
Hermès’s approach to discreet luxury, with the focus on craftsmanship and
materials rather than logo display.

Condition: damaged — minor wear on the edges and slight fraying of the canvas fabric
are visible, with edge damage at the corners noted; the overall structure remains
sound.
