Heritage Luxury Accessories Holiday Auction Hermes Highlights
- Thread starter Rachel @ HALuxury
- Start date
Hi Rachel, this is the second year that I previewed with a friend Heritage fine handbags/jewelry lots in Beverly Hills for December auctions. It has been such a pleasure and fun also! They are all so beautiful and in lovely condition. I will be following your auction on line 
I agree with this. It helps to be accurate as there are many Hermes customers who are knowledgeable and we want to make sure the item is described as per it is before buying. Some of us do not want to end up buying another similar item when we already have one in our collection. You guys have done a good job. Do describe the specifications more accurately too.
I totally understand! We continue to hone our skills as identification is very important to us. We have experts internally, externally, and even from Hermes occasionally that spend weeks reviewing every piece. Although this is a fun category, it is also a serious collector field also and that's important to us -- that's part of the reason that we set up this thread with tPF, we want to give the collectors special access! Over the next few days I will add some more highlights that I think you all might like
That birkin makes my heart jump everytime i see it ! I usually don't gravitate towards 25cm Birkins but that one is just precious. What do you think of the 25cm ombre lizard ? Have you seen that one ? I don't love it as much

I am so happy to hear that you were in Beverly Hills ! I am sure that we met then
Were there any bags that you saw in real life that were so much more spectacular than you saw online or in the catalogue ? I would love to hear your opinion !
Well, of course. Your catalogs are very well made with beautiful pictures, however the bags IRL are also in lovely condition. I took a picture of the black Birkin with the diamond studded hardware it was so beautiful! The diamonds were blinding...I am so happy to hear that you were in Beverly Hills !

I was at the preview last year and the bags are just delicious and in such great condition - totally agree with you!

I particularly like the ghillies and gator Kelly! They are absolutely gorgerous! The silver mini kelly is very cute too! But I am not sure it's big enough for my "essentials". Rachel, you really do have some really special items in this lot!

Thank you very much ! Can you believe the poudre kelly its from 1992 ? It has been taken care of impeccably ! It's really amazing how finely they age
The silver mini kelly has a sterling chaine d'ancre shoulder strap ! I would wear it as a necklace It's actually a bit bigger than it seems - here is a picture of me wearing it !Attachments

Lovely mod picture, Rachel! Yes it is a lot bigger then I thought! Is it heavy? It's solid sterling silver I assume?
