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 BagsBirkin 30 HSS (Horseshoe Stamp) in Bubblegum and Gris Tourterelle Chèvre with Palladium hardware. A bi-color Special Order with Bubblegum (5P) as the primary body color and Gris Tourterelle as the secondary. Chèvre goatskin has a tighter, finer grain than Togo or Clemence, with superior color saturation and structural rigidity. The pink reads more vivid on Chèvre than it would on a softer, more absorbent leather. Palladium hardware keeps the cool register. The Horseshoe Stamp is embossed to the left of the Hermès logo, confirming Special Order provenance.
Collector's Insight:
HSS Birkins in Chèvre are more scarce than Togo or Epsom Special Orders, as Chèvre is allocated in smaller quantities across the production program. The Bubblegum/Gris Tourterelle combination pairs a statement pink with a versatile warm gray. Chèvre holds its structure and color intensity longer than softer leathers, making it the preferred Special Order leather for collectors who prioritize longevity. X stamp places this at 2016 production. Pristine condition at ten years suggests very limited use.
Resale Insight:
HSS Birkin 30 in Chèvre commands premiums over Togo and Epsom Special Orders on the secondary market. The Bubblegum/Gris Tourterelle palette appeals to collectors seeking a pink that is tempered by a neutral counterpoint rather than presented as a full-body statement. Birkin 30 is the most liquid HSS size.
