Heir to a clutch bag designed by Robert Dumas in 1938, the Hermès Verrou is named after the unusual deadbolt fastener.

Step aside, Birkin and Kelly — Hermès is relaunching the Verrou Chaine clutch bag, which will have the ladies who lust over the famous French house’s wares clamouring to get on the inevitable waitlist.

The Verrou – the name means “bolt” and refers to the bag’s boltlike metal clasp – was first designed by Robert Dumas, a fourth-generation family member, in 1938.

Although the Verrou has been re-imagined in a miniature size, it still packs a glamorous punch with its strong geometric shape and heavy-duty palladium-coated chain strap.

The Verrou Chaine clutch bag ($8,000-$21,000) will be available in a variety of colours and styles including goatskin, Doblis calfskin, and alligator.
