The Hermès Birkin 35 in Vert Veronese Ostrich is a rare example of the maison's largest standard size rendered in exotic skin. Vert Veronese is a sophisticated, earthy olive green with grey undertones, serving as a versatile neutral that pairs exceptionally well with the warm Gold hardware. The bag is crafted from *Struthio camelus* (Ostrich), distinguished by its "pearled" quill follicles. Ostrich skin is renowned for its durability and suppleness; it resists moisture and scratching better than most leathers and develops a rich patina over time, particularly on the handles.
The bag bears a "D" stamp encased in a square, denoting production in 2000. At 35cm, this piece represents a category of production that has become increasingly scarce; finding ostrich skins of sufficient size and quality to create a continuous 35cm panel is difficult, leading Hermès to severely restrict or effectively halt the production of Ostrich Birkins in this size.

JaneFinds Collector's Insight:
The Birkin 35 in Ostrich is considered an "Endangered Species" in the collecting world. Due to the difficulty in sourcing large, unblemished skins, modern Ostrich production is almost exclusively focused on the smaller 25cm and 30cm sizes. A 35cm example in a heritage color like Vert Veronese represents a specific era of Hermès manufacturing that is unlikely to be repeated in significant numbers.
JaneFinds Market Insight:
While the current market trend favors smaller bags, the "Ostrich 35" holds a unique value proposition based on scarcity. It is a contrarian investment: buying a size that is functionally discontinued in this material. Collectors value these pieces not just for their utility, but as artifacts of a time when large-format exotics were more readily available.
