Hermès Lizard Bags
16 products
Hermès exotic skin bags include crocodile, ostrich, and lizard options. While the Porosus Crocodile bags have the heftiest price tag, Hermès lizard bags are the most rare, by far. Finding a sufficiently large skin in perfect condition to complete even a small lizard Birkin is challenging. Many Hermès boutiques go a year or more without ever receiving a lizard skin bag.
Lizard is the ideal choice if you love the exotic look of Hermès crocodile bags and alligator bags but find them a bit too bold for your personal style. The tiny, close-set scales add extraordinary richness and elegance to Hermès lizard bags, creating a more subtle pattern than the larger scaled bags. Walk on the wild side with a small purse or wallet featuring soft, supple lizard skin.
Hermes uses two types of lizards: Niloticus Monitor lizard from Africa, and Salvator lizard from Asia. The type of lizard used can be identified by the marking next to the Hermès engraving under the flap of the bag, with “—” meaning it is made of Niloticus lizard and “=” meaning the item is made of Salvator lizard.

Lizard skin absorbs and displays color beautifully. This has a stunning effect on Hermès lizard bags, which are produced in a range of neutral shades and bold fashion colors. The skins are buffed to either a matte or a “lisse” (shiny) finish. There is no glaze that could flake or chip. Hermès lizard skin is highly durable and retains its shine for decades.
While most Hermès lizard bags are crafted entirely from lizard skin, Hermès has created a “Touch” version, which combines leather such as togo leather, with matching lizard on the straps, handle, clochette and, in the case of the Birkin, front flap.
Hermès lizard bags are so rare, it is wildly unlikely that you would be offered a lizard Kelly or Birkin by your SA, even after years of nurturing your relationship. However, our curated collection of Hermès bags crafted from lizard skin is in stock and available for immediate shipment. Choose from small Hermès lizard Birkin bags, Hermès lizard Kelly bags, Hermès lizard Constance bags, Hermès lizard Kelly Pochettes, and Hermès wallets.
