hermès birkin 35 candy collection kiwi and vert cypress epsom palladium hardware

kiwi unfurls like the heart of its namesake fruit—vibrant, zesty emerald kissed by a whisper of sunlit chartre . this electric green hue brings a playful vitality to hermès’ candy pieces, balancing boldness with a refined softness. it evokes the bright tang of a freshly sliced kiwi, its lively depth hinting at both zest and sophistication. rendered in hermès’ supple epsom leather, kiwi gleams under palladium hardware, transforming classic silhouettes into spirited statements.

the hermès candy collection is a series of limited-edition bi-color birkin and kelly handbags first launched in spring 2011 under creative director christophe lemaire. marking a playful departure from hermès’ traditionally subdued palette, these pieces feature contrasting leather interiors and were produced in 35, 30, and 25 cm birkins as well as 35, 32, and 28 cm kellys.

across two waves, the candy collection introduced eleven vibrant shades: kiwi, lime, blue celeste, rose tyrien, bleu électrique, étain, and tosca in spring 2011, followed by jaune d’or, rose jaipur, brique, and rouge casaque in fall 2012. these eye-catching combinations quickly became must-have collector’s items, cementing candy’s place as a landmark limited edition in hermès history.
