Authentic or Replica Hermes Birkin Bag
Posted on August 20th, 2008 by Lucy
I found some little secret about Hermes Birkin online.
There is a major difference between the authentic Hermes bag and replica Hermes bag. Check the photos below. Seldom people really notice this difference as it is hard to spot from photos. Whoever takes photos from this angle knows this difference!

I found replica birkin bags got this correct now!
I have the opportunity to buy a birkin, but I have questions about the seam at the top (where the flap meets the back of the bag). It has a waxy or gummed finish on the seam. Same finish all around the bag, but it is particularly visible on this wide seam.
Is this normal for a Birkin? What should that top seam look like?
which one is the same as an authentic birkin? the second one?
