Hermès Birkin 40 Rouge Vif Toile and Courchevel with Gold Hardware This Hermès Birkin 40 is a striking vintage example of the maison's mastery in pairing luxury with utility. Crafted from Rouge Vif Courchevel leather—an early, structured predecessor to Epsom—and durable Toile canvas, the bag strikes a perfect balance of vibrancy and texture. The vivid red leather trim and handles contrast beautifully against the natural canvas body, while gold hardware adds a classic Hermès polish. Courchevel’s fine grain and semi-gloss finish provide durability and elegance, making it an ideal choice for a 40cm travel-sized Birkin. This rare configuration is especially prized among collectors for its timeless colorway and bold, architectural contrast. The larger 40cm size evokes the original spirit of the Birkin as a travel tote, yet its rarity and refined material mix place it firmly in the realm of high fashion. Perfectly preserved in Excellent condition, this bag includes its lock, keys, clochette, and dustbag—an exceptional find for those who understand the legacy of vintage Hermès craftsmanship.

The Rouge Vif pairing, a true Hermès classic, offers a bold yet elegant look that transcends seasons. For those curating a travel-ready collection or investing in legacy models, this is a prize piece—especially with its vivid red accents and excellent structure. JaneFinds Resale Insight Larger vintage Birkins have experienced a strong resurgence as fashion embraces oversize proportions again. The durability of Courchevel combined with the collectible appeal of vintage Toile makes this bag a strong candidate for appreciation, particularly as Hermès continues to limit production of classic canvas-leather hybrids. 👜 JaneFinds Handbag Condition Guide 📅 Hermès Date Stamp Guide 📐 Hermès Size Guide ⛓️ JaneFinds Accessory Chains
