Founded by Thierry Hermès in 1837 as a Parisian harness workshop for European nobility, Hermès has evolved into a symbol of ultimate luxury and discreet elegance. Initially specializing in high-quality equestrian leather goods, the house expanded under successive generations, introducing saddlery, travel bags, and in 1922, its first handbag. Today, its product universe spans leather goods, silk scarves, ready-to-wear, timepieces, and fragrances, all created with a profound dedication to artisanal craftsmanship. The brand's most celebrated creations, the Kelly and Birkin bags, are handcrafted by a single artisan over many hours and have become global benchmarks of exclusivity and style.
