With a history rooted in artisan saddlery and fine leather goods for the carriage trade, the first Hermes bag – the ‘Haut a Courroies’ bag – was developed in 1900 as a means for equestrians to carry their saddles. Today they continue with the tradition of fine, handmade Hermes leather handbags, the designs of which represent the most coveted of ultra-luxury handbags in the world, including the Hermes Birkin Bag, Evelyne Bag, Kelly Bag, and Hermes Constance Bag.
