Hermès Style & Size
The largest of the "standard" Birkins the 40cm is popular for travel and business. The size and weight make a popular choice as a man's bag.
Hermès Material
The Porosus Crocodile has smaller, more symmetrical scales in a more uniform pattern than the Nilocitus. 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 . It achieves a fabulous mirror like, almost glassy finish and works extremely well with rich colours. Porosus crocodile is signified by a caret ^ symbol next to the Hermes name on the bag.
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.
