A striking and highly collectible decorative box from Hermes, crafted in France circa 1970 in collaboration with Maria Pergay and distinguished by its rich oxblood-red lacquer finish and iconic brass buckle motif. Elegant in its restraint yet unmistakably Hermes, the design draws directly from the house’s equestrian heritage, transforming one of its most recognizable design elements into a sophisticated functional object.
The rectangular form is framed in warm brass with a polished lacquered lid, centered by a sculptural buckle detail that recalls the hardware found on Hermes belts, saddlery, and leather goods. The result is a beautifully balanced object that feels equally at home in a library, dressing room, office, or cocktail setting.
Produced during an era when Hermes created some of its most sought-after decorative accessories, this box exemplifies the maison’s ability to elevate everyday objects through exceptional materials and timeless design. Whether used to store jewelry, cufflinks, correspondence, playing cards, or personal keepsakes, it serves as both a practical accessory and a refined statement piece.
Rarely encountered on the market, Hermes decorative boxes from this period have become increasingly desirable among collectors of luxury design, equestrian-inspired objects, and vintage Hermes home accessories.

Who Are You Buying From?
Every object here has a journey before it ever reaches you. I've spent years seeking these pieces out, in back rooms of old ateliers, from families who've inherited more than they can keep, through dealers I've come to trust, in conversations with people who still work with their hands, because I've always believed the things we choose to live with should carry something true. What began as a private obsession became a devotion, one I now share with my wife and daughter, who remind me daily that the best collections are the ones built to be passed down, not simply owned. What you're holding isn't just an object. You're inheriting its story, and becoming part of its next chapter.
