Question 1

How do you authenticate a Hermès Constance?

Accepted Answer

Authentication rests on several cross-checked details: the quality and spring mechanism of the H clasp, the regularity of the hand saddle-stitched seams, the leather grain, the edge finishing and the blind stamp, which indicates the atelier and production period. The stamp alone is not enough, as it can be imitated. At Old Fashioned Club, every Constance is authenticated by our experts and comes with a certificate of authenticity.

Question 2

What factors determine the value of a pre-owned Constance?

Accepted Answer

Several elements influence value: the material (everyday, rare or exotic leathers), the colour (timeless neutral or more seasonal), the clasp finish, the format, the overall condition, the presence of original accessories and the rarity of the combination. No fixed price can be quoted in advance, as each piece is assessed individually.

Question 3

What are the differences between the Constance versions?

Accepted Answer

The Constance comes in several formats: the 18 and the 24, but also the Mini, the more elongated Elan, the Constance To Go and the contrast-lined Verso. The variations involve size, silhouette, leather type (Box Calf, Epsom, Swift, Evercolor, exotic skins) and clasp finish.

Question 4

How do you care for a Constance bag?

Accepted Answer

Keep it away from direct light and humidity, ideally in its dust bag and gently padded to preserve its shape. Avoid prolonged contact with water and any rubbing on the leather. Handle the H clasp with care to protect its spring mechanism. For deep cleaning, entrust it to a luxury leather specialist.
