Balenciaga Hourglass Small Black in Crocodile-Embossed Calfskin

The black Balenciaga Hourglass Small, reference 5935461LRGM1000, combines the characteristic curved Hourglass silhouette with glossy crocodile-embossed calfskin. The 23 × 15 × 10 cm dimensions keep the bag compact while offering more capacity than the XS version.

The curved base, top handle and antique gold-tone B logo define one of Balenciaga's most recognisable designs, while the adjustable, removable strap allows different carrying options.

Black crocodile-embossed calfskin

The calfskin features a raised crocodile embossing that creates a three-dimensional surface and enhances the depth of the black colour.

The texture follows the distinctive Hourglass geometry, highlighting both the curve of the base and the profile of the upper flap. The front B logo and other antique gold-tone finishes introduce the main colour contrast.

Small format and Hourglass silhouette

The Hourglass shape is defined by a curved base that rises towards the centre of the bag and is echoed by the upper section, creating an instantly recognisable profile.

At 23 cm wide, 15 cm high and 10 cm deep, the Small offers more space than the black Balenciaga Hourglass XS, which reduces the proportions to 19 × 13 × 8 cm while keeping the same crocodile-embossed leather.

Both sizes can be compared with other options in the Balenciaga Bags collection.

Handle, strap and interior

The top handle allows the Hourglass Small to be carried by hand, while the adjustable and removable strap, with a drop of approximately 55 cm, allows shoulder or crossbody wear.

The closure is magnetic and studded. A flat pocket sits on the back, while the lambskin-lined interior includes a zipped pocket for smaller belongings.
