Hermes is currently working on an exhibit appropriately titled “Leather Forever,” set to open on May 8th in London. The exhibit will be celebrating 175 years of Hermes being in the business of producing some of the world’s most iconic leather goods!

The exhibit will include inched saddles, which were at the heart of the luxury house’s offerings from centuries past and of course, some of their iconic bags like the Birkin and Kelly from this century.
The show will also feature some bags that were created especially for the exhibit, each representing England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The bags will then be raffled off, with proceeds going to the Royal Academy of Art.
