What is the most coveted handbag?

The Birkin bag is a wedge-shaped, flat-bottomed bag made by a single craftsman, who spends 18 to 25 hours making it. The Hermès Birkin bag is larger and considered less formal than the Kelly Bag. Hermès artisans can only make about five Birkins a week. Traditionally the Birkin was made out of brown crocodile but now available in many luscious colors. It is the iconic symbol of fashion, luxury, and wealth. A crocodile Hermès Birkin bag with diamonds sold at auction for $222,000.
