Breaking news on the highly sought-after, yet elusive Birkin 20!
Over the past year, the Birkin 20 has only been spotted in exotic skins like Lizard and matte Crocodile. While undeniably beautiful, the versions in Noir, Vert d’Eau, Gold, and Havane have kept this mini Birkin beyond reach for most collectors who aren’t VVIPs.
However, we’ve just received a photo of an exceptional Birkin 20 crafted in Noir Chèvre leather, featuring stunning beaded patches. These patches aren’t mere embellishments—they are intricately hand-beaded belt buckles, adding a playful, whimsical flair to the classic silhouette.
Could this signal the arrival of more Chèvre or other leather versions of the Birkin 20? Hermès is known for its surprises, and this new iteration certainly wasn’t on anyone’s radar. Stay tuned for more updates on the Birkin 20 and its future releases.

Think you finally have the perfect collection of Hermès Kelly 20s? Perhaps you have a rainbow array of colors and leathers and you’re feeling a sense of satisfaction with your grouping of mini bags. Well, hold on. Hermès has something new and petite for you to covet. It’s a total twist for us Mini Kelly fans. And, no, it’s not a Mini K. It’s Birkin 20.

As if we didn’t leave Paris from the Fall/Winter 2023 runway show and Re-see with a long wishlist of new and upcoming handbags, now we must add another. Tiny and dainty yet with some capacity this will surely make for the ultimate wishlist item for 2023.

To be fair, tiny Birkins aren’t a totally new concept. The Faubourg Birkin comes in the 20cm petite size. And long before the current mini bag craze, in 2011 then Hermès designer Christophe Lemaire released the first Birkin 15, which actually had been designed by his predecessor at Hermès, Jean-Paul Gaultier. That tiny bag was produced only in limited quantities in swift and epsom leather.

As for this iteration of a Birkin 20, we presume it will only be made in exotics and will be a push offer. Meaning Paris will send it randomly and sparsely to just a few boutiques here and there around the globe.
Thus far, it has been spotted only twice, in black lizard and Vert d’Eau croc, and we don’t expect it to be an easy offering. If you’re dreaming of this, be prepared to continue dreaming. We anticipate seeing it on a few VIP celebrities before it’s available to anyone else (possibly in 2024).
But I, for one, am willing to wait as long as it takes to make one of these babies mine.

Contact Dr. Excellent love spells to return your ex-lover back.
Everything I’m going to suggest for you is what I’ve seen breathe new life into broken marriages for thousands of women in your distressing situation—and what I did to revitalize my own broken marriage. I was heart broken when my husband left me and moved to California to be with another woman. I felt my life was over and my kids thought they would never see their father again. I tried to be strong just for the kids but I could not control the pains that tormented my heart, my heart was filled with sorrows and pains because I was really in love with my husband. I have tried many options but he did not come back, until i met a friend that directed me to Dr. Excellent a spell caster, who helped me to bring back my husband after 11hours. Me and my husband are living happily together again, This man is powerful, Contact Dr. Excellent for any kind of spiritual problems or any kind of spell or relationship problems he is capable of making things right for you with no side effect.
