Initially designed to carry a saddle, these bags have become a favorite for their spacious interiors and durable handles, making them the perfect travel companion. This absolutely and rare example boasts Vert Olive Ostrich, a grand travel companion. The HAC Birkin was first created in 1892 by Émile-Maurice Hermès, who was inspired by the totes used by Argentinian cowboys during his trip to South America. Over the years, other bags, such as the Kelly in 1956 and the Birkin in 1984, have been created with the HAC as their muse. While the Birkin was modified to be shorter and smaller with slightly longer handles, it still embodies the original form and size of the HAC, ranging from 40 cm to 55 cm. However, its large size can also be seen as a hindrance, as it may not be as popular among men. Spotting a HAC Birkin in the wild is a rare sight, but when you do, it's hard not to stop and admire its grandeur.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 40cm is the larger proportioned silhouette. Interior is lined in matching Chevre leather with one zip pocket and one open pocket. Signature turn-lock closure, front flap, and sangles complete the hardware configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 – Excellent\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vert Olive\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLeather:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ostrich\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gold\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40 x 30 x 21 cm | 16\" x 12\" x 8\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJaneFinds Collector's Insight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ostrich production is constrained by raw material scarcity and limited annual output.
