Delivery & Returns
Q: What typically fits inside a Birkin 35?
A: As a roomy tote (approx. 35 × 27 × 17 cm on this piece), it comfortably holds a full-size wallet, phone, cosmetics pouch, a notebook or A4 documents, a tablet and small water bottle. A slim 13-inch laptop can fit; use a protective sleeve and avoid overloading to protect the structure. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Does the Birkin 35 come with a shoulder strap?
A: No. The classic Birkin is designed to be handheld with dual rolled handles. This piece has an approximate 10 cm handle drop for crook-of-arm carry.
Q: What is Hermès Courchevel leather and how does it wear?
A: Courchevel is an embossed calfskin with a fine cross-hatched grain and gentle sheen. It is lightweight, holds its shape well, and is comparatively resistant to surface scratches, making it a great choice for a structured Birkin.
Q: Is Courchevel leather still produced by Hermès?
A: Courchevel is discontinued and was succeeded by Epsom in the mid‑2000s. Collectors value Courchevel for its slightly different grain and sheen compared with Epsom.
Q: How should I care for vintage Courchevel leather?
A: Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after use. Keep away from oils, cosmetics, moisture and prolonged direct sunlight. Store upright in a breathable dust bag, loosely stuffed to maintain shape, and avoid hanging the bag by its handles. Consider handle scarves to minimise contact and colour transfer.
Q: Is the hardware solid gold?
A: Hermès Birkin hardware is typically brass plated in gold or palladium. On this bag it is gold‑plated; light hairline marks from normal use are expected.
Q: Is the Birkin 35 heavy to carry every day?
A: The 35 can feel substantial, especially when filled with a laptop or documents. Many owners prefer it for work or travel days and pack lighter for extended carry.
Q: Will a 13-inch laptop fit without harming the bag?
A: A slim 13-inch laptop generally fits. Use a padded sleeve, distribute weight with pouches, and avoid prolonged heavy loads to reduce stress on the handles and maintain the bag’s structure.
Q: What is included with this item?
A: As listed in the product information for this piece: dust bag, padlock, keys, clochette and receipt. If an item is not stated in the product information, it is not included.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this bag?
A: Each item is vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of leather, stitching, stamps, hardware and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of every piece we offer and can provide additional product information on request.
