The journey of "Himalaya"

Here is the summary of the OMBRE series milestones for who those are Hermes lovers.



For me, if cutting the brand off, I still admired the "Himalaya" leather color because the color theme is classy and can be matched in all dresses. The Himalaya is almost made of Exotic leather like Niloticus crocodile from Zimbabwe. However, before this Himalaya with white and brown gradation shades, their some model in the Ombre series before Himalaya.


1996-1997 The Vert Celadon was created with a kind of porcelain inspiration with a gradation of green to brown. In this Vert Celadon series, Kelly, Vert Celadon was produced before Birgin, Vert Celadon but it was only a tailor-made for "VVIP" client of the brand.


2007 The OMBRE series has stopped production for a year.

2008 The OMBRE series has returned in "HIMALAYA" with white between brown which becomes one of the most expensive handbags in the world. Especially, the HIMALAYA color, white gold with diamond hardware. The Himalaya was created both Kelly and Birkin at the same time frame.


2010 The Gris Tourterelle was created with similar to HIMALAYA but instead of white between brown but it is gray.



2010-Present The Himalaya created a variety of models such as Kelly, Birkin, Plume, Lindy, and Constance. Others have available with palladium hardware and white gold with diamond but the Constance has a little more special with Gold & Rose gold charming hardware.






There are also a stamped detail and stamp color which has minor change at a time.


Even though I really love this Himalaya series but honestly, I have no idea how to grab her to own in my both factor of limited budget and I have known anyone in the Hermes store!
