Ooh La La, le Birkin sighting at Porte Clignancourt!

My Boyfriend was in Paris this weekend, and teased me with this picture of a lovely montage of vintage Hermes and Chanel bags at the Levenez-Antiquité Boutique storefront, located at Porte Clignancourt....:girlsigh:

The Birkin is 35cm, gold, Ardenne leather, gold hardware...5500 Euros...just lovely!

Gorgeous!
I have a dumb question, though...I thought a new Birkin in Paris was only about that price? Somehow I had it in my head that they cost about a thousand less at FSH than they do here in the states.
 
Ohhhh just did a little search on Ardenne on the board...apparently it's a discontinued leather! I'm sure the Birkin there is a rare one indeed...
 
OMG *plonk* what a glimpse into heaven, but isn't that about 11,000 US dollars? and what is that kelly in the middle do you think, not the rouge/red one but the browny one?
