Hermès Birkin 25cm

The Hermès Birkin 25cm is an exquisite Hermès handbag ideal for carrying your essentials for the day and transitioning seamlessly into the evening. Standing at approximately 10 inches wide, 7.5 inches high and 4.75 inches deep, the Baby Birkin bag features two rolled handles and is designed to be carried by hand.

The Hermès Birkin 25 is the smallest Birkin bag (with the exception of some limited edition VIP pieces measuring 20cm). Originally, the Birkin 25 was only made in the Retourne style. The Retourne style Birkin bag is crafted inside out, with the stitching inside the bag to create soft seams and rounded corners. This relaxed silhouette, referred to as “souple,” helped distinguish the Birkin bag from the classic, more structured Kelly bag.
