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 BagsMalachite is a deep green named for the banded copper mineral ; darker and smokier than Vert Fonce, with more saturation than Vert Anglais. In Togo's pebbled grain the color reads muted in low light and shifts greener in direct sun.
Togo is bull calf with a pronounced, irregular grain. It resists surface scratching better than smooth leathers and does not show fingerprints. At 35 cm, the bag holds shape without internal support but will develop a slight slouch at the corners with regular use ; this is characteristic of Togo, not a defect. Gold hardware warms the green.
Collector's Insight:
Malachite sits in the Hermès green family between Vert Fonce and Vert Cypres ; a middle-dark green without the blue or yellow undertones found in other house greens. The color was introduced in the mid-2010s and has since been retired from production. Birkin 35 remains the classic proportion ; large enough for daily carry, small enough to hold by hand without overscaling.
Resale Insight:
Retired greens in neutral-grain leathers hold consistent secondary market demand because Hermès does not reissue identical shades. Malachite has no current production equivalent at exactly this depth and hue. Pristine condition with full accessories on a 2017 production piece.
