Why an Hermès bag increases in value over time

A Hermès bag is not a simple purchase. It's a rare piece of craftsmanship, a cultural icon... and an investment that defies time.

Why an Hermès bag increases in value over time

Buying a Hermès bag is much more than a pleasure purchase. It's an investment in fashion, culture and heritage.

At Reench, we see every day how these pieces stand the test of time with their value intact - and sometimes even growing. Why do we do this? Here's what makes a Hermès bag so desirable... and as safe as a financial investment.

1. Extremely rare craftsmanship

Each Hermès bag is handmade by a single craftsman in the company's workshops.

  • A single craftsman signs his bag
  • More than 15 to 20 hours of work per piece
  • A demanding selection of leathers: Togo, Clémence, Epsom, Box Calf...

Hermes never ages. It matures.

2. A policy of scarcity

Hermès does not mass-produce. Each bag is distributed in a controlled manner, according to confidential quotas.

  • Impossible to buy a Birkin or a Kelly directly online
  • Colors, combinations, finishes often limited in time

The result: controlled scarcity that sustains demand. And thus, value.

3. Resale value that defies time

Unlike most luxury bags, Hermès :

  • sell very quickly
  • keep a stable or increasing value
  • of interest to collectors and investors alike

In 2020, a Birkin Himalaya sold at auction for over €300,000.

And in many cases, investing in a quality Hermès bag is more profitable and safer than some stock market investments - especially in uncertain times.

4. Why buying your Hermès from Reench is strategic

At Reench, we select each bag with rigor and transparency:

  • Authenticated before publication
  • No hidden fees or commissions
  • Fair prices, often lower than major platforms
  • Fast shipping in 2 to 3 days

And above all: a lively, colorful, unique collection - far from uniformity.

Conclusion

To buy a Hermès bag is to choose an exceptional piece, at the pinnacle of craftsmanship and rarity.

It's also sometimes a better investment than certain stocks.
