The story behind the Birkin
Originated in 1984 from a conversation between Jane Birkin and Hermès Executive Chairman Jean-Louis Dumas; its structural lineage traces to the Haut à Courroies. Familiar sizes are 25, 30, 35 and 40 cm, alongside miniature, shoulder and travel versions, in both Retourné and Sellier construction.
Discover Hermès Birkin BagsThe Bouclerie Moderne Casaque takes its subject from the Hermès bouclerie, the buckle-making atelier where the house's saddlery hardware originates. Across the front of the Birkin 20 Sellier, archival belt and harness buckles are rendered as hand-applied beadwork, each motif built bead by bead in its own colorway against the Noir ground. Casaque refers to jockey racing silks, and the palette carries that register: racing reds, teals, ochres, and blues set against black.
The body is Noir Chèvre Chamkila, a goatskin with a fine pressed grain and subtle sheen that holds the Sellier construction's rigid edges at this scale, with tonal stitching keeping the beadwork as the only color event. Palladium hardware stays cool against the black. The interior is lined in Noir Chèvre with a rear slip pocket.
Collector's Insight:
The hand-beaded construction places it closer to the house's Métiers d'Art output than to standard limited editions: each buckle motif requires individual application.
Resale Insight:
The Casaque draws both micro-bag collectors and equestrian-theme collectors.
