Independent Hermes Authenticators

I was at a gathering some days ago and a close friend asked me a question point blank.

" I was telling my friends about you and they asked, with all the recent scams, how can they tell if a bag is Authentic?"

I get that a lot, and it's tough explaining the meticulous attention to detail and various factors going into an authentic Hermes especially a vintage piece.

To most, unseasoned eyes, it's understandable to apply the rule of thumb on new pieces to vintage pieces but, many enthusiast are unaware that the Hermes Logo, Zipper, Shoulder strap and dustbags have changed over time. Thus rendering that guide partially useless. 

The conversation continued ... " My friend got cheated, a Hermes staff highly recommended a reseller and confirmed that the bag was real, sometime later, when she wanted to sell it, another reseller refused to accept that bag, telling her it was fake. " In such a scenario, which reseller is telling the truth? Sadly, the bag turned out to be fake.

There are other horror stories where they asked a friend to purchase a Brand New In Box with Receipt Piece and it was fake too. Thus my lack of stock on the availability of receipts.

I really feel for these people.

I personally scrutinize every bag for authenticity and go further then most resellers by providing an internationally reputable authenticity cert.

There are many well known providers for such a service,

However, it is my company's policy to only accept and use Bababebi. We are not affiliated in anyway.

Over the years of sourcing for Hermes bags and looking at authenticity certificates. I have found flaws and errors in many certificates. I have been completely satisfied with her level of scrutiny, service and after service. She maybe more pricey then the others, but definitely worthwhile.

Here are some samples of her work.

Hermes Popular Accessories

Personalize your Hermes Bags with their range of exquisite accessories.

It's my personal recommendation to wrap all Birkin and Kelly handles with a handle protection product, beneath a twilly. 

Silk naturally has anti- bacteria properties but is not absorbent, moisture still gets onto the handles after use. 

These are some accessories that we carry. Email me for enquiries.

Feminine Understated Hermes Bolide

The Bolide is one of Hermes most understated but iconic bags. Around since1922 made at the request of the wife of Hermes’s owner Emilie-Maurice Hermès, to carry in a new invention at the time – the automobile . The Bolide was born and christened  “Bugatti”. It was also the first bag to incorporate a zipper on the outside. 

Hermes, of late has started giving them newer fresher colors and greater variety of leathers, thus some named the relax bolide. 

This previously over looked bag by young yuppies is now turning heads. It's spacious interior and feminine chic outlook is regaining popularity.

Available in an array of sizes. There is one for everyone.
