Hi

I am new to this forum. I have been reading and lurking in TPF for a long while esp been drooling over the H bags. That being said I have read a number of names mentioned but do not know how the actual bag should look like. Could someone please tell or point me to where I can see pics of all H bags with the appropriate names attached to them? Thank you!
 
Wow! This is really helpful. I was checking around to see if there was any additional information I could look up on Birkin bags and you really helped me out with your first post. Now, I'm checking out your info on the Kelly bags. Thank you so much.
 
Hi..my friend bought a Kelly which has an 'F' stamp..everything looks ok until she found that the zipperstop is still in square shape not the H. Is that bag fake then ? Coz i read that from 2001 all have an H zipperstop, which means start with 'E' stamp. Many tx..

HI, I would like to know this answer as well. I bought a year 2006 (J stamp) birkin in vache liegee, the zipper also ends with a Sqaure, not the 'H'... Could it be special edition? And also the brown stamping on the Hermes Paris Made in France? Which type of leather or which year's making used brown stamping?

Thanks .

Although they started using the H zipper stops a few years ago, square zipper stops were still being used in J year. Even a few K year bags have them I heard. But bags later than K year should only have the H stop.
