FASHION ICONS
THAT ENDURE THROUGH TIME
AND BECOME TIMELESS
Our world is fulfilled with amazing and
wonderful objects of desire that conquer
thousands of admirers all over the world,
breaking all boundaries of time over the years.
It can be for their simplicity, their extreme
beauty, the high-end materials beneath
the execution or it can be for the brand or
designer's signature. The truth is that unique
people are surrounded by unique pieces
of clothing, accessories, shoes, bags and
jewellery. Unique, exclusive and, sometimes,
custom-made.
The iconic Hermès Birkin bag, originally designed for the actress
Jane Birkin, is now one of the most desirable and sought after
bags in the world. The ravishing Hermès Himalaya Birkin Bag is
considered the Holy Grail in a Handbag collection and is made of
Nilo crocodile, rendered in a subtle coloration that is meant to evoke
images of the majestic Himalayan Mountains. It features 18-karat
white gold hardware studded with white diamonds and a Cadena
lock with 68.4 grammes of 18-karat white gold and encrusted with
40 white round brilliant diamonds, totalling 1.64 carats. On the bag,
three different structural elements - the Touret, the Pontets, and the
Plaques de Sanglons - feature more than 200 diamonds for a total of
8.2 carats. This is arguably the rarest, most spectacular, and most
jaw-dropping Birkin to ever be made, and it is likely the only time a
bag of this calibre will be offered on the luxury resale market.
