The Priciest Handbag Ever Sold At Auction Is A Hermes Birkin

The Priciest Handbag Hermes Birkin

Some Hermes bags are known to be ridiculously expensive, but that’s not to say that their price tags aren’t justified at least partially. These handbags are usually made out of premium materials such as crocodile leather, and they boast exceptionally luxurious adornments such as diamonds and other precious stones. This particular fuchsia Hermes Brikin was sold for about $221,844 at an auction in Hong Kong, and this makes it the most expensive handbag ever sold at action.
