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 BagsCrafted from supple baby bull hide, Clemence leather has been a cornerstone of Hermès collections since the 1980s, prized for its rich texture and robust durability. Its slightly relaxed silhouette lends a graceful slouch that many find advantageous for daily wear, as any natural creasing or edge patina can be easily refreshed, ensuring the bag maintains its sophisticated allure through years of use.
This store-fresh Birkin arrives with gleaming palladium hardware and was crafted in France, exemplifying Hermès’s uncompromising attention to detail. Measuring 14 inches wide, 9 inches high, and 7 inches deep, it secures belongings with the signature clasp closure. Accompanied by its original care booklet, dust bag, and protective plastic raincoat, this Black Clemence Birkin is ready to become the centerpiece of any discerning collection.
Collector's Insight:
The Birkin 35 in Black Clemence represents the core of the Hermès handbag program. Production quantities are not disclosed by the house, and retail acquisition requires an established purchase history with a Hermès boutique.
Resale Insight:
The Birkin 35 is among the most consistently traded formats in the resale market. In a durable leather like Clemence, it is built to be carried regularly rather than saved for occasions.
