Edward Cole patented the bag in 1854 and named it after former British Prime Minister William Gladstone. Find a selection of Gladstone bags on 1stDibs.

    Yes, Crocodile Birkins are made from real Crocodiles. Niloticus croc is sourced from the Nile river; while Porosus croc is sourced from Asia or Australia. Niloticus scales are generally larger than Porosus. Niloticus is marked with a “..” diaeresis mark in foil; while Porosus is denoted by the “ˆ” (carat) mark in foil. Generally speaking, Porosus is more sought after and has greater resale value due to its smaller and more symmetrical scales.

  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Yes, there are Birkin bags crafted from real crocodile skin. The main kinds of crocodile that are used to make Birkin bags are the Niloticus crocodile, which is found in Africa, along the Nile, and the Porosus crocodile, which is found in Australia and Asia.
