Hermès Birkin 30cm Black Touch Shiny Croc/Togo RGHW

Hermès Style & Size

The Birkin 30 is favoured for its versatile proportions - large enough for daytime functionality but refined enough to carry into the evening. It transitions effortlessly between casual, business, and formal settings, making it a go-to bag for women who want form, function, and status in one piece. It can hold all the necessities, including iPad and an awful lot besides, it doesn’t get heavy, doesn’t look enormous at a restaurant table and is hugely resilient. It can be opened with ease and does not get too heavy. From this size up, Birkins are held on the forearm, your hand passing through the two handles.

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 to produce its signature mirror-like sheen. It achieves a fabulous, almost glassy finish which works extremely well with rich colours. This delicate surface is sensitive to water and prone to fine scratches.

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

Black Birkins have always been, and continue to be, Lilac Blue's best seller. For Hermes bags it is one of very few classic colours and is produced every season of every year. Black complements all types of wardrobes and occasions – from formal business wear to casual jeans and neutrals and whether you’re a seasoned collector or making your first purchase, it will never go out of style.

Hardware
