About Us

An Hermès Birkin 25 doesn’t come with a physical “letter of authenticity”; instead, its authenticity is verified by the unique Hermès stamp, or date stamp, found inside the bag and by its logo print under the flap, which reads “Hermès Paris Made in France” in a specific font and color. Authentic stamps are crisp, centered, and have a unique letter/shape code indicating the bag’s production year and maker.

Key Characteristics of an Authentic Hermès Stamp:
Location: The Hermès Paris logo is stamped under the front flap, and the year stamp is located on the interior of the bag.

Appearance:

Logo Stamp: This stamp clearly reads “Hermès Paris Made in France” in a distinctive, precise font, not too large or small.
Year Stamp: A letter (or letter/shape combination) indicates the year of production.
Color: The stamp should match the color of the bag’s hardware; a bag with gold hardware will have a golden stamp.
Quality: The stamps should be crisp, even, and well-aligned, without any blurry or smudged lettering.
Font: There’s a specific, elegant, and simple font that Hermès uses.
Depth: The embossing of the stamp has a subtle depth to it.
What to Avoid:
Missing Accents: The second ‘e’ in “Hermès” must have the French accent mark.
Incorrect Spacing: The letters in the logo should be evenly spaced.
Spelling Errors: Fake Birkin bags may have misspellings or omit “Made in France”.

How to Confirm Authenticity:

Purchase from Authorized Sources: The only way to guarantee authenticity is to buy directly from Hermès.com, an Hermès boutique, or an authorized distributor.
Professional Authentication: For pre-owned bags, utilize reputable authentication services that provide a Certificate of Authenticity
