From sick bag to chic bag; how a chance encounter gave birth to the Hermès Birkin fashion icon
Though it is almost 70 years old, this magnificent handbag is as lustrous and stylish as the day it was made in 1951. Best of all it is true, bright white and an ideal complement to your resort, spring and summer wardrobe. Envelope-style top handle bag with gold palladium rope motif flip latch closure and handle hardware; accordion gusseted bottom and sides.

The Cultural Endurance of the Mighty, Mighty Birkin
Subtly striking, this exquisite silk handbag features a muted Chinoiserie motif that would be remarkable on its own were it not upstaged by its unique figured brass top lid, which is worked to resemble rigid flowers with coral and emerald cabochons at their centers. The hairpin chain handle allows all angles of the purse to be seen to full effect, while the slipper satin change purse—tethered to the interior by a delicate chain—is trimmed in matching Chinoiserie brocade.
