Thierry made sure that this love was seen and executed in all Herm\u00e8s pieces ever created. Herm\u00e8s craftsmen stitch handbags by hand, replicating techniques that were used for two centuries to craft the exemplary saddles.<\/p>\n<p>This technique means that a craftsman spends between 14 and 40 hours to craft the perfect Herm\u00e8s bag. This expert craftsmanship cannot be repeated by a machine; it takes two needles simultaneously passing through the same seam to produce a Birkin. This technique ensures that the stitching of the bag will never unravel.<\/p>\n<h3><b>The Herm\u00e8s Birkin handbag<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/birkin.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-25946 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/birkin.jpg\" alt=\"rocodile Skin Birkin handbag\" width=\"2580\" height=\"2336\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The birth of the Birkin is a story that has become iconic amongst Herm\u00e8s admirers. It all started with an accidental meeting in the sky between actress Jane Birkin and then creative director Jean-Louis Dumas.<\/p>\n<p>Dumas asked Jane Birkin why she travelled with a simple tote instead of a leather handbag. She explained to him that she found leather bags to be too structured and she desired something different. Through this accidental meeting, the Birkin was born.<\/p>\n<p>The Birkin has an eternal lifespan and being the most coveted bag in the world it holds tremendous value. The Birkin is at the top of ranking lists with the highest resale value for a couture handbag.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The slow and precise manufacturing process as well as the scarce materials used, make this handbag the perfect investment piece, with a resale value of between 80% and 120%. <\/span><b>Read our blog: <a href=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/expensive-hermes-handbags-sold-second-hand-handbags\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Most Expensive Second-Hand Herm\u00e8s Handbags <\/a><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to see how much quality pre-owned Birkin handbags sell for now.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The Birkin is designed with a variety of animal skin, the rarer the skin the more expensive the handbag is.
