Watch: How Hermès Handbags Are Made

The Kelly and Birkin handbags from Hermès have been considered pieces of iconography for decades. Toted by A-list celebrities, fashion enthusiasts and the most notable style icons of both past and present – Hermès handbags are considered an investment and have stood the test of time.

Did you know just one single Kelly takes a whole 13 hours to create?

Thanks to Vogue‘s latest YouTube drop, we’re able to bare witness to the inner workings of the masterful Hermès ateliers in the fascinating 10-minute video. Priscila Alexandre Spring, the leather goods creative director at the historic and storied French label, gives us a tour of the facility located within the heart of Paris. Priscila introduces us to the talented artisans who craft the luxury and exclusive leather goods, introducing us to each department, including the hardware and harmony departments. Inside the Atelier Harmonie, Hermès craftsman Fabrice hand stitches a black Kelly, which is made entirely inside out and requires extreme precision and expertise. Needless to say, the video is fascinating from start to finish.
