Hermès Limited Edition Birkin Faubourg Sellier White Matte Palladium Hardware

Description:

The Faubourg Birkin is a special tribute to Hermès' flagship store in Paris. It was introduced in 2019, featuring a 20 cm size crafted in their Sellier fabrication. The design replicates the building's facade, with orange awnings and a key clochette resembling the iconic orange shopping bag. The bag's exterior combines five contrasting leathers, including Matte Alligator, Veau Madame, Epsom, Sombrero, and Swift, while the interior is lined with luxurious Chèvre Mysore. The Faubourg Birkin quickly became highly sought after, joining the ranks of Hermès' legendary Himalaya Birkin and Kelly bags.

In 2021, two new versions of the Faubourg Birkin were released. The Midnight edition features an all-black design with PVD hardware, lock, and keys. The Snow Faubourg, known as the White House Birkin, stands out as the most popular and rare. It uses Beton Matte Alligator leather for the bag's body and Blanc Togo calfskin for the flap, strap, and handle. The attention to detail is exceptional, with different leathers like Blanc Sombrero, Craie Swift, Bleu Brume Chèvre Mysore, Blanc, and Orange H Swift used for various parts. The Snow Faubourg is the most expensive of the four versions due to its extensive use of exotic leather. Collecting all four of these remarkable pieces allows you to complete your own Faubourg Square.
