Hermes Birkin is synonymous with luxury, and their purses are works of art in and of themselves. This Hermes Birkin Bag is limited-edition, and it sold for $125,000 at auction as a result. The Birkin is a Kelly Bag made of crocodile and black Togo leather. The bag has five red crocodile feet.

The Birkin was the priciest Kelly ever sold at auction. The Kelly was originally estimated to sell for $50,000, but it well surpassed expectations. Christian Astuguevieille, a French artist, designed this bag for Hermes’ Petit H collection. When it first came out, the bag sold for $60,000. Now, the limited-edition numbers have driven the price to double that.
