Sac Hermès Picotin

The Picotin Lock arrived in 2002, sketched as a stable bucket bag inspired by Hermès' equestrian roots. Its tubular shape, hand-stitched handles and padlock-clochette make it the maison's most relaxed silhouette. On JoliCloset, 659 pre-owned Picotin bags are listed, from daily Picotin 18s to limited Tressé Picotin 26s.

Picotin 18, 22 and 26: three sizes

The Picotin 18 (PM, mini) has become one of the most-requested Hermès bags under $3,000 retail. The Picotin 22 (MM) is the everyday choice. The Picotin 26 (GM) doubles as a market tote. All sizes share the same architecture: open bucket, hand-stitched handles, removable padlock-clochette, unlined leather.

Picotin leathers and colors

The Picotin is mostly produced in Clémence and Taurillon Maurice — two soft bull leathers that follow the shape. Swift and Vache Hunter appear occasionally. Hermès has released Tressé and Cargo woven editions and Eclat bicolor versions. Seasonal palettes drive resale value: Rose Sakura, Vert Yucca, Bleu Brume or Mauve Sylvestre routinely trade above retail.

Pre-owned Picotin price

2026 boutique pricing: Picotin 18 around $2,400, Picotin 22 around $3,200. On JoliCloset, secondary prices stay competitive for staple colors (Noir, Étoupe, Gold), while seasonal colors can exceed retail. Systematic authentication covers heat stamp, year letter, saddle stitch on handles, and Hermès Paris padlock engraving.
