I thought since we have all these wonderful references on size, style, color, prices, etc we should have a thread to understand what goes into making Hermes bags.
I know Hermes only takes the top 2% of the leather in the world...and I know it goes thru many quality passses (anyone know how many) and if Hermes doesn't like the leather.....they just stop making it for awhile.....
I don't know exactly how long it takes to make a Kelly or Birkin or how many stitches.
how long does someone train to be able to make a Birkin or Kelly?
Also, gold hardware is what karat and is it just plated? What about [SIZE=-1]Palladium[/SIZE]?
Anyone know any facts?
What can we add to understand the Making of Hermes!
