A unique handbag in Le Perkeen, the only one of its kind to the singer and actor born in the British Jin BirkinIt is for sale in Paris.
Iconic model model Hermes Bag, which Berkeen used for nine years, is expected to bring a six -numbers at the auction next month.
The effects of posters are used well and still carry Birkin stickers irreversibly on the soft black skin, and the full bag comes with the nail clips that hang inside.
The head of hand and fashion bags in Sotheby, Aurelli Fassi, said it was unique.
She said: “This was the first bag that was given to Jane Birkin, and it is clear that she made statements and suggestions about the initial model. It is not the Le Birkin that we all know and love, which was a kind of cooperation between her and Hermes.” “The initial model is once. There is no other bag like it in the world.”
The creation of Le Birkin is a fashion legend that came after Birkin Chance with the President of the French Luxury Commodities Company, Jean-Louis Dumas, on a commercial trip from Paris To London in 1984.
In an interview with CBS, Birkin, who died in July 2023, said: “I found myself in a very polite noble papers and I had my agenda as a usual country of paper and everything fell to the ground.
“So I picked it up and said:” You must have pockets in this agenda. “I said:” What can you do?
I said: “Why do you not make a slightly larger handbag from Kelly and not big like my bag, which weighs a ton … there was a type of vomiting bag and I had an exaggerated drawing and took it with him, and after a month I received a call from Hermes saying that I had a look at this bag. “
Birkin Phuicked the Prototype Handbag in 1994 for a charity for French AIDS. It was sold again in 2000 and bought the current owner, a mosque for luxury goods, and he refused to say the amount of its payment for that.

The subsequent relationship of Berkin with the exclusive bag that now sells for thousands of new ones, hundreds of thousands used have been mixed. Hermes gave her four others, but in an interview conducted in 2012 she described it as “Berkeen Bag”Complaining that they were heavy and “snobbish”. Three years later, I asked Hermes To rename the skin crocodile due to concerns about the treatment of animals used to produce them.
The original bag in Moma was shown in New York and the V & A Museum in London. The initial model is a different volume of subsequent models, and it contains a belt and shoulder of copper, and is later replaced by rings with golden panels, clips and “feet”.
Fassi said that people love Le Birkin “because of his origin and history.” “It is like a famous artwork, and has its own energy and spirit. This bag was the beginning of Le Birkin and we know that Jin was proud of its existence.”
The bag will be sold on July 10 at the beginning of the Haute Couture week in Paris.
