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 BagsThe Hermès Birkin 35 Club is a spirited Limited Edition that brings a dash of athleticism to the brand's most iconic silhouette. Released circa 2012, the "Club" design features a distinctive color-blocked architecture inspired by vintage sports cars and jockey silks. This pristine example is a study in cool neutrals and electric pops of color. The body is constructed from Taurillon Clémence Leather in a refreshing combination of Gris Perle (Pearl Gray) and White (Blanc), creating a clean, nautical canvas.
The defining feature, however, is the vertical racing stripes rendered in Mykonos Lizard. This precious exotic skin, dyed in the vibrant turquoise of the Greek islands, provides a stunning textural and chromatic contrast against the matte, grainy Clémence. Finished with cool Palladium Hardware, this bag is sport-luxe at its most refined: casual enough for the beach, sophisticated enough for the city.
Collector's Insight:
The Club Birkin holds a special place in the hearts of collectors who appreciate Hermès' playful side. It was one of the first major mixed-material limited editions, paving the way for the "Touch" series. Finding a Club in this specific colorway, combining the rarity of White Clémence with the desirable Mykonos Lizard, is exceptional. It is a time capsule of a specific era of Hermès creativity.
Resale Insight:
While all Club Birkins are collectible, those with bright, contrasting Lizard trim tend to command the highest premiums. The Mykonos Lizard is particularly coveted because it adds a high-value exotic element in a saturated color that is universally loved. As a 35cm Limited Edition, it stands out from the sea of plain leather Birkins.
