Description from the seller
Hermès – Swift Ghillies Birkin Retourne 35 – Argile & Etoupe
The Hermès Birkin Ghillies is one of the most fascinating and rare limited editions from the House, inspired by traditional Scottish shoes the 'Ghillie'. This Retourne 35 version stands out for its decorative punched features (broguing) that ornament the edges and trims, transforming the iconic Birkin silhouette into a masterpiece of detailed craftsmanship.
Made in Swift leather, known for its almost imperceptible grain and its extraordinary ability to render colors deep and luminous, this bag features a sophisticated bi-color combination in the iconic Argile and Etoupe tones.
Produced in France in 2013 (Stamp ▢Q), the Birkin Ghillies embodies discreet luxury yet rich in personality.
The Retourne construction gives the bag a softer, more relaxed look compared to the Sellier version, making it ideal for extremely refined everyday use.
With its rounded handles, the classic turn-lock closure, and the roomy interior, this Birkin 35 is not just a functional accessory but a collectible piece that celebrates Hermès' technical mastery in combining equestrian tradition with ornamental design.
