Perfect for weekend escapes or polished everyday wear, the Hermès Victoria 35 in turquoise Clemence leather adds a refined pop of colour while accommodating daily essentials. A chic companion for work commutes, city shopping, or carry-on travel.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What are the measurements of the Victoria 35 and how does it carry? A: The Victoria 35 is approximately 35 × 22 × 16 cm with a handle drop around 20–23 cm. It is designed for hand or crook‑of‑arm carry, and many users can slip it over the shoulder, especially without bulky outerwear. A structured base with protective feet helps it stand when set down.
Q: What typically fits inside this size? A: It comfortably holds daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, small cosmetics pouch, keys, a 500 ml water bottle, and an A5 notebook or tablet. A slim 13‑inch laptop can fit horizontally; use a sleeve and avoid overloading to preserve the bag’s shape.
Q: Does it come with a long shoulder strap? A: No. The classic all‑leather Victoria 35 is a top‑zip tote with dual rolled handles and does not include a detachable long strap. Shoulder carry, if desired, is via the handles only.
Q: How is the interior organised? A: The interior is lined in beige herringbone canvas and typically includes one zipped pocket and two slip pockets. The double‑zip top closes securely and can be locked with the padlock.
Q: Does the Victoria 35 have protective feet? A: Yes, most Victoria 35 bags feature metal feet on the base to help reduce wear when placing the bag down.
Q: What is Clémence leather like? A: Clémence (veau taurillon) is a softly grained, durable Hermès leather that resists light scratches and develops a relaxed drape. It is a little heavier than Togo leather and may soften and slouch gently over time, especially if heavily loaded.
Q: How should I care for Clémence leather? A: Wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry naturally. Avoid harsh cleaners, oils, and prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or heavy rain. When storing, loosely stuff the bag to support its shape, keep it in a breathable dust bag, and stand it on its feet rather than on its sides.
Q: Is the Victoria 35 still sold at Hermès? A: Hermès currently showcases Victoria III fourre‑tout styles online in mixed materials. All‑leather Victoria II 35 bags like this one are most often found on the pre‑owned market.
Q: What does the stamp Square K (2007) mean? A: Hermès uses a blind‑stamp system to indicate production year. A letter inside a square was used from 1997 to 2014; Square K corresponds to 2007.
Q: What’s included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under product information. For this piece, that is a luggage tag, padlock, keys and a clochette.
