Hermes Shiny Bordeaux Poros Crocodile, 10.23ctw Diamond and 18K White Gold Birkin 35 (Carried Once W/Dt Cover and Rain Protector) - This exceptional handbag from Hermes is the tour de force of the hoe, and is an incredibly rare piece with excellent investment potential. This iconic handbag is the 35cm Birkin bag constructed of the coveted Poros Crocodile leather which is often lauded as the most precio of the brand's exotic skins. The leather is characterized by its symmetrical scale patterning as well as by the subtle circumflex symbol stamped in silver beside the Hermes logo. The leather is featured in the rare and exquisite deep burgundy Bordeaux color which can take you through any season. The bag is finished with solid 18k white gold and diamond hardware totaling approximately 10.23 carats of ethically sourced diamonds. When you hear of record-breaking Birkins, diamonds are almost always involved as diamond Birkins are among Hermes' most coveted creations and are rarely seen on the secondary market. With luxury brands such as Chanel, Gucci and Michael Kors recently banning the e of exotic furs and skins, these alluring works of art could be even more scarce should Hermes follow suit. Birkins outperformed both gold and the S&P 500 stocks over the past 35 years with an annual return of 14.2%,pared with gold's 1.5% and stocks' 8.7%. With Hermes' recent elimination of the wait list and plans to further lower the current ultra-limited production, prices will likely continue to grow. The handbag wille with the clochette, diamond encrted lock, keys, dt cover, and rain jacket. According to our seller, this bag has been incredibly well kept and only worn once, and still has the protective plastic intact. Measurements: 14"W x 10"H x 7"D (35cm x 28cm x 18cm).
