Hermès Style & Size
The Hermès Birkin 25 is the scaled down version of Hermès’ most iconic handbag. Lined with chevre leather and featuring both a zip and slip pocket there’s enough room for a phone, wallet, keys, and small hairbrush, but not a lot else. It looks beautiful and dainty. Small people or those with very petite hands, can usually pass their hands through handles of a size 25, otherwise it is usually carried in the hand.
Hermès Construction
A softer construction style where the seams are turned inward, Retourné creates a more relaxed and rounded silhouette than the limited edition Sellier model. The edges are smooth, and the overall look is understated and supple, often associated with a more casual feel.
Hermès Material
The shiny (Lisse) finish is created by hand-buffing the crocodile skin with agate stone, a process that draws out the leather’s natural oils. Niloticus Crocodile scales are larger and less regular in shape than those of the Porosus and when polished have a more textured feel. Niloticus crocodile is signified by two dots (••) next to the Hermes name on the bag.
Hermès Colour
Vert Cypress is a deep, luxurious forest green that evokes the elegance of evergreen trees, this colour blends the intensity of green with cool, almost black undertones. In low light is appears as nearly black but reveals a deep green glow in natural light.
Hardware
Hermès Palladium hardware is made of solid brass, giving weight and durability, and then plated in precious metal. Palladium belongs to the platinum group of metals and has a brighter and whiter look than silver. More precious than gold, palladium is hard wearing and scratch-resistant.
