Hermès Birkin 35cm Flag Canvas/Leather Permabrass

Hermès Style & Size

The Birkin 35 is the original and most classic size of the iconic Birkin bag - celebrated for its blend of luxury, function, and timeless design. Introduced in the 1980s for actress and style icon Jane Birkin, the 35cm version was created to be roomy enough for everyday essentials, making it the ultimate chic carryall for modern life. For practical work or travel bag, it will carry a laptop and almost everything else although it gets heavy when full and is too large for an evening bag. For those who are able to use it casually, it makes a brilliant gym bag or baby bag.

Hermès Material

Toile refers to the woven fabric, usually cotton or a cotton blend, used by Hermès in many of its handbags often in conjunction with leather. Toile H is made by combining two different colour threads to form a subtle repeating H throughout the canvas.

Originally used for making saddles, Barenia is a smooth water resistant leather. It wears well and because it absorbs oils found on skin develops a beautiful patina over time. This leather is usually paired with white contrast stitching.

Hardware

A mixture of gold and palladium, Permabrass is champagne coloured hardware.
