Hi !Hiii
has anyone been offers a birkin 25 sellier? I am interested but never seen one in person. Does anyone have a side by side picture of a b25 sellier and a regular b25? Any information would be appreciated.
Thank you!
I got a B 25 sellier in etain back in July. Offered in Paris.
I dont have a regular B 25 for comparison.
Let me know if I can help.
I love mine. Before I saw it, it was a no because a birkin sellier was too structured and boxy in my mind. But in the size 25, I personaly think it is a beautiful bag, really gorgeous and special!
I still did not carry mine yet though..
Here is a pic
Glad another member pointed me in the right direction of this thread. So I got offered my first quota bag this past weekend and of course I took because, you know, *eager beaver* first timer. I didn't think to ask the SA about the leather before going in because color and hardware was more important to me. So of course I was taken aback when I saw that it was a leather I hadn't known anything about (Madame) and the structure of it was different, but I couldn't put my finger on it except that it looked stiff. My SA is relatively new to Hermes as well, so I felt like her explanation of the leather wasn't the best. PLUS, again, I was so excited to get an offer that I wasn't going to turn it down. I still don't know how I feel about the structure. I've always been a casual, sloppy bag kind of person, so having a very structured and stiff bag is a totally new ballpark for me. I'm still excited to have it. It's so beautiful and ladylike...unlike me. Haha. Pushes me out of my comfort zone for sure and definitely instantly elevates my look. *pinkies up* 
This is so beautiful. Congrats! I love sellier so have k's. I have a b sellier on my wish list now. Thank you for sharing!Glad another member pointed me in the right direction of this thread.

on your Birkin Sellier! You can read more on the relatively new Madame leather here. 
hi! Question, does the 4 feet on yours sit flat on a surface? I got my bag today and two of the feet don’t totally touch a flat surface... I’ve seen some pictures online of other bags where it has the same issue. Wondering if this is common with the bag or just mine? Thanks!
This does happen and it happens with bags in general - from normal (non sellier) Birkins to Kellys. We’ve had a couple reports about it in the forum. Generally speaking if you use the bag it works itself out.
I have a B30 Sellier and it does stay flat with all of the feet on a flat surface. I haven’t noticed this with any of my other bags though.

Very sophisticated. As much as the original birkin was a lovely floppy tote, this iteration brings a bit more of a structured briefcase vibe to me if that makes any sense. I much prefer this version as it gives it a bit more of the structured kelly-esque look that I love.
Enjoy your lovely new bag for many years to come!
ITA! This bag combines the structure and lines of a sellier Kelly that I loooove so much but in a tote style which is my favorite!!!!
I'm just waiting for H to produce this bag in a Color/Hardware I love (and don't already have in my collection)!!!
Thank you Flava!
Sending you some birkin sellier magic dust!
This isn't common. Two people I know have received bags with uneven feet, one is a dear friend. She received an SO with uneven feet, 3 touches the surface while 1 doesn't. Her SA/SM said it's normal and it would even out with use. Two years later, the feet remains uneven till today. I would suggest returning the bag and waiting for another. At my store, if this was raised while viewing the bag, the manager wouldn't have sold it to a client.
