The Hermès Béarn long wallet in a vivid lime chèvre, closed by the slim leather strap and palladium H clasp, with a full interior of card slots, bill sections and a zipped coin pocket.
The Piece
Named after the historic province in south-west France, the Béarn is the house's classic long wallet and one of its most enduring designs. Its signature is the narrow leather strap passing through a polished H, a closure that echoes the house's saddlery hardware. The Soufflé version is slimmer, without the accordion gusset, so it lies flat in a handbag.
This example is made in chèvre, Hermès' goatskin, with its fine, pebbled grain and gentle sheen. The colour is a bright lime yellow, believed to be the house shade Lime, which brings the wallet to life against neutral leathers. The hardware is palladium. Inside are five card slots, three open sections, a long bill compartment and a central zipped coin pocket, all in matching chèvre, with 'Hermès Paris, Made in France' stamped in silver.
It measures 17.5 cm by 9 cm and about 1 cm deep, slipping easily into a Kelly or Birkin, or carried on its own as a clutch.
Chèvre is among the most durable of the house leathers, resisting scratches and holding its colour well, which makes the Béarn in this skin a sound choice for daily use.
