Hermes Birkin 30cm Graphite Ostrich GHW

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 quill pattern of the feathers gives Ostrich its instantly recognizable polka-dot-like appearance. One of the most resilient of the Hermès leathers, Ostrich is lightweight, wears well and actually improves with age, developing a subtle patina over time.

Hermès Colour

Gold is one of Hermes’ most iconic and enduring leather colours – a rich, warm medium tan with golden undertones that reflects Hermès’ equestrian heritage and timeless style. Introduced decades ago, it remains a cornerstone in the brand’s colour palette and is instantly recognizable for its classic elegance. Like Etoupe and Blue Jean, Gold handbags always feature contrast white stitching.

Graphite is a deep, smoky grey with subtle cool undertones of blue and charcoal, ideal for those who want a deep neutral that’s a touch softer than true black. In certain light it looks completely black; in daylight you can see that it’s very dark grey…

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.
