Noob question: does anyone know how do i find the exact leather type of my bag? i forgot what it is, it's not indicated on the receipt and i don't know how to figure it out. Asking my dear SA is an option, but wonder if there's any other way?
 
I hope some one can answer this question, if it doesn't belong here let me know and I will redirect to proper thread. I have searched high and low and can not find the answer to this simple question. My Birkin 35 BF arrived today with no label on the outside of the orange box. Two weeks ago, my Birkin 35 Noir arrived (been an expensive month) and on the outside of the box there is an Hermes barcode tag with a description, item number, scan code. I called the store and they explained that all labels are removed from the orange boxes prior to being sent out. Did any of your Birkins that were purchased directly from H come with any labels on the orange box? This label could be important in the future when or if I should ever be asked to produce the original box if it is in fact missing its label. Thank you so much for your response.

My SA always removes the label from the box in-store when he presents the box/bag to me. I imagine if I don’t take it the label is replaced to assist with stock tracking in store, but I’ve always been presented with ‘clear’ boxes upon purchase and departure.
 
Hi guys,
I saw 2 Birkins on a website yesterday with rose gold hardware. Are they a SO or a limited edition release like the Candy series? How rare are they and also, how rare are Birkins and Kellys with permabrass hardware? Can they be SO’d?

Thank you in advance!

I just saw a lady with a Togo Birkin in Canopee. It was pretty but the stitching was of the same color. I think it would look nicer with white contrast stitching. Does anyone know if this variation exists? I've reached out to my SA but have not heard back from her yet. Thanks for the help!
 
Yes, Retourne Epsom Kelly’s are produced. Regarding availability you would need to refer that to your SA.

Wow, I’ve never seen one. Must be pretty rare.

Canopee is not currently in production. Only a very few colors are made with the white contrast stitch (and normally when they are, it’s only with the white, like etoupe), so if you haven’t seen it with, its very unlikely you will find one.
