Vintage Hermès Bag

Equestrian heritage and values of Hermès bags

What makes this brand so unique comes from its history. Founded in 1837 by Thierry Hermès as a harness workshop in Paris, the brand was crafting exquisite saddles and bridles for European nobility. This specialization in equestrian craftsmanship is what set the foundations for the brand as a way to focus on quality with a meticulous approach. Expanding over decades, the desire for superior artistry, functionality and timeless elegance became even more tangible when Émile-Maurice Hermès, the grandson of the founder of the brand, introduced the first leather bags in the early 20th century, leading the company to become one of the most important actors in luxury goods in France.

Working with visionaries such as Jean-Louis Dumas, Hermès introduced iconic handbags that made the brand even more popular: the Birkin and Kelly. These creations, recognized for their meticulous construction and exclusive materials, gave Hermès its actual status of global icon of luxury. Its only focus since then is quality, exclusivity and heritage with pieces handcrafted in France that respect the highest standards of quality.

The values of the company are “exclusivity, meticulous craftsmanship and timeless design”. They have remained constant over the centuries, making it one of the most respected luxury brands in the world. This is why our shop is proud to introduce some of the most beautiful Hermès vintage bags to help you embody the beauty of heritage and unparalleled commitment to quality when it comes to finding the perfect accessory for your wardrobe.

Masterful leather Craftsmanship Behind the Brand

Each Hermès bag was created by artisans who dedicated years to master extraordinary craftsmanship. They go through rigorous training and must complete their work from start to finish, which makes it a quite unique process in today’s world of mass production. This allows the bags to be, not only beautiful, but also highly durable and completely unique because they are marked by the hands that created them.

The leather selection of Hermès is what makes the pieces so special. It includes rare selections of Togo, Epsom and Clemence that were chosen for their texture, durability and visual appeal. The brand is also famous for its leatherwork that create a distinctive luxury feel. The intricate stitching, especially the saddle stitching, is a signature technique that makes each pre-owned Hermès bag exceptionally sturdy.

The finishing touches of vintage Hermès bags are as iconic as their overall designs. We can recognize it thanks to elements like the lock and key on the Birkin or the graceful H clasp on the Constance that adds a layer of sophistication. The edges are hand-finished while the precisely placed monogram and carefully selected materials are all part of the brand’s devotion to superior quality. This is why each Hermès vintage bag remains a collectible treasure that will last forever.
