Hermès Birkin 35 Blue Saphir Novillo "Sea, Surf and Fun" Interior Palladium Hardware
Hermès Birkin 35 Blue Saphir Novillo "Sea, Surf and Fun" Interior Palladium Hardware
This Hermès Birkin 35 is a rare "Hidden Luxury" limited edition that conceals a vibrant secret. While the exterior is rendered in the sophisticated, deep jewel-tone of Blue Saphir Novillo leather, the interior is lined with the "Sea, Surf and Fun" silk twill designed by Felipe Jardim. This 2018 exclusive print is a riotous celebration of Brazilian beach culture, featuring stylized surfboards and waves in a palette of blues, reds, and pinks. It represents a whimsical departure from the standard Chevre lining, transforming the bag into a private gallery known only to the wearer.
The exterior is crafted from Novillo leather, a lightweight bull calfskin with a fine, natural grain that offers a sleeker, more formal finish than Togo. Accented with cool Palladium hardware, the Blue Saphir hue reads as a profound navy with violet undertones. Produced in 2018 (Stamp C), this pristine example captures a specific moment in Hermès history when the maison began experimenting playfully with silk-lined leather goods.

JaneFinds Collector's Insight:
Silk-lined Birkins are a niche sub-category of Limited Editions. They appeal to the "Quiet Luxury" collector who values discretion; from the outside, this appears to be a classic Blue Saphir bag, but the interior offers a burst of artistic expression. The "Sea, Surf and Fun" edition is particularly coveted for its joyful, summer-centric theme, making it a perfect counterpoint to the serious nature of the Blue Saphir exterior.
JaneFinds Market Insight:
Limited editions with unique interiors occupy a specific sweet spot in the market. They are rarer than standard models but often more approachable than "External" limited editions like the Faubourg or Cargo. Because Novillo leather was used less frequently than Togo or Epsom during this period, the material itself adds another layer of rarity to this specific configuration.
