Hermès has unveiled its Collections for the Home 2026, and at the centre of it is a new line of objects that takes its name from an ancient Greek goddess. The Palladion d’Hermès: a centrepiece, jug, and two vase styles, is made from hand-hammered palladium-finish metal, a material chosen for the way it captures light and shifts with the angle of the eye. Studio Hermès describes the silversmith’s hammer as giving the metal a “vibrant, shimmering quality,” and the objects bear out that intention: each piece is finished through a sequence of ancestral techniques including spinning, stamping, flame brazing, and hammering.
The leather pairings are where the house’s DNA becomes most legible. The Vase Palladion d’Hermès is encased in a sleeve of black horsehair and Swift calfskin edged with lizard, a direct reference to Hermès’ Toupet bag. The Vase Palladion d’Hermès Casaque takes a different route, wrapping a cylindrical hammered metal form in Epsom calfskin and Chamkila goatskin in colourways drawn from the jockey silks of equestrian sport: sésame-noir, vert cyprès-Sienne, vert Véronèse-rouge sellier. The centrepiece, measuring 40.3 centimetres in diameter, is laced at its edge with Chamkila goatskin in anémone and deep blue, a detail that recalls the original Hermès harness, in which leather and metal are inseparable.
Beyond the Palladion line, the collection extends across textiles, boxes, and furniture. The Piano box features a lid in leather marquetry across Chamkila goatskin, Chagrin goatskin, and Epsom calfskin on a wooden body; the Confettis basket is built in perforated Epsom calfskin with stitched leather appliqués in a multicolour polka composition. The cashmere throws — woven in Nepal, resist-dyed, and hand-finished, range from the geometric Clamp & Dye to the Aventure, a gradient piece in hand-dyed cashmere with knotted velvet lambskin fringing.
The Stadium d’Hermès table, designed by British duo Edward Barber and Jay Osgerby, anchors the furniture offering: a figure-of-eight dining table in Carrara Venato and Verde Alpi marble marquetry, its legs banded in the two-tone Jumping motif.
