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 BagsThis limited-edition Touch Birkin 30 pairs Bleu Encre Togo with shiny niloticus crocodile. The crocodile is used only on the flap, handles and sangles, so a polished exotic texture sets off the grained body.
Bleu Encre is a deep ink blue, and palladium hardware keeps the pairing cool.
Collector's Insight:
Touch Birkins combine calfskin and exotic on one bag, placing the exotic where the hand meets the bag, and the line is offered in a select few color and leather combinations.
Resale Insight:
Touch Birkins occupy a distinct tier of the limited-edition market, priced on scarcity and design rather than direct comparables. Buyers check the crocodile handles for scratches and the Togo corners for wear.
