I’ve always wondered about this bag. All I know is it’s super rare, but what about how much it costs (if one gets it from H, not from auctions/resellers), or what it takes to be offered one? Does anyone have any info? 
Faubourg Birkin 20

yeah, and even when it was 220,000 euros at the secondary market, it still got sold in no time.
I was enamored with one at the Milan boutique last month.
Milan always has the most beautiful bags and pieces. Whoever curates the displays for the Milan store knows what we all want to see!
The Milan store is very strict about selling bags to locals in general (or one must be willing to spend a considerable amount). There's also a "For display only" plaque as for practically all bags on shelves now in all stores.
Thank you! That got me excited for just a min, since I’m going to Milan next week.

Thank you for sharing! What a dream collector's piece!!!
Oh! I am so glad they have not discontinued these beautiful bags. When I was in Paris, George V, the SA had advised me that they discontinued these bags. I have hope now❤️.

They do elevate the everyday into a work of art.*
Rather the opposite to having a screenprint or lithograph by a famous artist.
*This is not to under appreciate the beauty of craftsmanship that can be demonstrated in the basic (that's a bit ironic) Birkin

Dear Lord. That would make a fabulous addition for any 'property portfolio'.
