The Hermes Bearn is a long wallet distinguished by its streamlined profile and leather tab that passes through an openwork H closure. Named for the Bearn region of southwestern France, the design combines a zippered coin compartment, card slots, bill storage, and flat pockets within a restrained envelope-style format.

This Bearn Soufflet example is crafted in finely grained Epsom Leather in a red shade that appears to be Rouge Vif. The gusseted interior provides additional capacity, while the gold-tone H closure and coordinated zipper hardware add a polished contrast to the structured leather construction.
