Alongside its infamous sister bag, the Kelly, Hermès presents their iconic Birkin bag - the most internationally recognized and in-demand bag in the world. Originally created in 1983 when Jean-Louis Dumas met Jane Birkin on a flight from Paris to London. During the flight, she explained how she wanted a bag that was spacious enough for everything she needed to carry and more, with plenty of pockets. Shortly after, Hermès produced the first Birkin bag - now, thirty-six years later the bag still thrives. It holds an extremely elite reputation for being a status symbol, as well as a luxury handbag that offers everything you may need. Carefully crafted from smooth Swift leather in the signature Hermès Orange, this Birkin is stylish, sleek and sophisticated. Discreet and a true statement piece. An absolute must-have for any woman with a love for luxury, the Birkin is the ultimate addition to any luxury handbag collection.
