Welcome to The History of the Hermès Herbag!
Hermès has been creating beautiful leather pieces, renowned for their exquisite craftsmanship, since 1837. First established by Thierry Hermès as a harness workshop in the Grands Boulevards quarter of Paris, the atelier quickly became dedicated to serving European noblemen – even Napoleon Bonaparte was a client. In 1922 the first Hermès handbag was created and since then they have launched several of the most iconic bags in the world!
The History of the Hermès Herbag:
The Herbag’s canvas construction makes it one of Hermès’ most affordable purses. The bag’s body is completely made of canvas, but the top flap is fastened with a clou de selle and made of thick, long-lasting leather. The top can be taken off the body, letting the wearer combine and match different Herbags. Due to its elegant, timeless design, this Hermès bag—which also appeared in a backpack version—has been compared to the Kelly. However, the Herbag costs a fraction of what the Kelly does. The Herbag was discontinued at the beginning of the 2000s and revived as the Herbag Zip in 2009. A few new features introduced to the Zip are meant to modernize the Herbag. The more recent model has an internal removable pouch, a zip compartment, and an external pocket. A upper handle and a strap are features of both the Herbag and the Herbag Zip.
The price of a Hermès Herbag starts at $2,800, which is very affordable for Hermès standards. This bag is extremely elegant and chic! Not to mention practical and stylish for everyday wear. Finally this might be perfect for your first Hermès purchase. It has an affordable and will last you many years! And if you think the Kelly bag is too structured this laidback style is the one for you.
The Herbag is one of the Timeless Hermès Bags You Will Not Regret Buying!
