Hermès Wicker?
The Spring-Summer Le Monde d’Hermès catalogue came in the mail last week and my first thought when I saw these classic bracelets wrapped in wicker was, “hmm”. The cuff is kind of great. Worn with all-white and brown sandals would be chic.

They are kind of great! As is the silver Hermes bracelet you posted a few days ago. I’ve always wanted one of the wicker kellys….but I may start by rotating in some of my Hermes silver jewelry for spring/summer. It looks fresh and pretty!
Love these!!
Love Hermes but not a fan of these.
Love these so much. I’ve been looking at some vintage chairs that combine wicker, chrome and leather recently. This combination has been on my mind.
Love them!
J’adore.
Wearing wicker on one’s wrist doesn’t feel right to me. There is something gimmicky about this. Wicker makes for a fabulous handbag, vintage furniture, or a Derby hat. Like the Hermes Apple watch, this ‘bracelet’ surprises me. Hermes seems to be trying too hard and is beginning to appear desperate.
Would much rather invest in the Hermes classics than these wicker bracelets. Think these on a wrist would look like you are wearing the old wicker drink holders from the fifties.
Although I’ve come around to the Hermes Apple watch, I agree with Paula on the rest. Also, I keep thinking about how it would “catch” on sweaters etc.
Pretty but I would worry about how delicate the wicker is, especially at Hermes prices.
Understand the concerns of others about delicate nature of wicker, but I think these are special pieces that Hermes is putting out. Not they would be difficult to wear everyday but for that special outfit, one could. In addition, knowing Hermes, I’m sure the wicker is up the highest quality and endurance.
