If you’ve got a spare $30, 000 burning a hole in your pocket consider a trip to London’s Pullman Gallery. The boutique is currently selling a rare Hermes crocodile skin Sac a Depeche briefcase. The authentic 20th century case is finished in Crocodilus Porosos, revered as the finest croc skin in the world. It’s in mint condition (as you’d expect for this price!), and comes complete with a key fob and two Hermes keys.
These bags have long been favored by royalty, political figures, international jetsetters, and the upper crust. The Duke of Windsor snapped one up not long after its 1937 release, and the black crocodile version was with John F Kennedy when he was assassinated. That particular briefcase sold for $700, 000 at a 1998 auction, which almost makes the London gallery’s price a steal!
If you can’t afford one now, consider putting your name on the wait list. You’ll typically be left waiting four or five years, which should give you time to save up the cash!
