Hermès Birkin 25cm Vert Cypress Touch Matte Alligator/Togo GHW

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 Material

The high-gloss finish of Shiny Alligator is achieved by buffing the skin with a stone. This traditional technique compresses the surface scales and produces a natural, mirror-like sheen which can help disguise small imperfections. The central scales are rectangular, gradually tapering to smaller, rounder ones toward the edges, creating a balanced and symmetrical pattern. Alligator is signified by a small square ☐ next to the Hermes name on the bag.

One of Hermès’ most recognisable leathers, Togo is a supple, pebbled leather and features a distinctive vertical grain that is slightly raised to the touch. Although lightweight it holds its shape well and has the advantage of being resistant to scratches and can even withstand a little light rain.

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 Gold hardware is made of solid brass, giving weight and durability, plated in either 18 carat gold, or for some Special Order bags, 24 carat gold and then hand polished. Choose gold hardware for a warm, luxurious finish to your bag.
