The Garden Party bags thread

Many many years ago I had purchased a Hermes Garden Party. I had major designer bag fever back then. I was on this site with a different name before, but it has been so long I couldn’t remember my login password. I’ve been racking my head in trying to find out the official name of the bag it went by.
I found the description of it on page 4 of this thread and then it was never mentioned again nor pictures of another one was ever posted. That being said, I don’t know how to post pics. It is the GP with a silk lining interior. It came with a matching twilly. Mine is orange. I know it is authentic as I purchased it myself. Does anyone have an idea/thought of what my GP could be called?
Thank you and I appreciate any help I can get.

Thank you!! So, the 36 could definitely be used as a work tote! Now, I have CARRIED this to work. However, I barely put anything in it. As that I am still scared to use it lol. Which is wearing off lol, but this definitely would be a great work tote, travel bag, mommy bag, and more. Definitely many available options on how to use this bag. And since the leather is heat treated it definitely makes it more hardwearing, and less prone to scratches! The current price without taxes calculated in is, $3,600 for the 30 in full leather, and $3,800 for the 36! The canvas option with leather trim is around $2.3k, I think! Hope this helps!
Beautiful. Do you think the Garden Party is a good work tote? How much is the current price in US dollars?

Hi dear PF experts, I need your advice.

I bought a Garden Party 36 on the H website a few days ago. I’ve noticed the middle (main) snap button is quite noisy and loud when not closed. This is quite obvious when just walking around, but even more so when driving; the vibration from the car and road makes the snap button make a constant noise. Is this normal? What would you advise I do?

Here’s a short video to give you an idea of what it sounds like.

My buttons do the same! I wonder if it’s normal?

It’s a great work tote and inflight travel bag as it easily carries personal essentials as well as an iPad. I only wish it came with attachments for a should strap.
There was a solid orange and striped Vert long ago which came with canvas shoulder strap but not sure why this wasn’t continued.
