Some Birkins are rare on a level that goes far and beyond the rest. This super collectible grail bag is a 30cm Birkin made of a very unusual material for Hermes: Suede. Saying suede Birkins are rare is an understatement. They have been produced for as long as any Birkins have, though are more difficult to find than even a Himalayan. Veau Doblis suede as Hermes calls it, is treated as a precious material and given heightened attention towards quality and construction. This extremely rare collectors piece is at once unbelievably unique, and a timeless classic, rendered in one of Hermes’ most enduring neutral shades: Fauve - the tone given to its deeply loved Barenia leather, reimagined here in precious suede. It has been kept in immaculate condition with the plastic intact on the Palladium hardware, and is ready to sit at the top of a world-class collection.
