This vintage Hermès Kelly bag was commissioned for an event launch in 2016 by The Fifth Collection, an online boutique based in Singapore specialising in vintage luxury items, and is now part of their archives.

The handbag was hand-tattooed over a period of two days using a real tattoo machine, tattoo needles and ink.

Staying true to The Fifth’s Collection’s roots in Singapore, the handbag is adorned with mynahs, a common species of birds found here and the Vanda Miss Joaquim orchid, Singapore’s national flower.
