Update on my dream Himalayan BK35 PSPs by Jim

My PSPs are here! Nothing makes me happier than receiving these amazing photos of a dream bag. The H Himalayan BK35 is considered one of the most coveted handbags in the world — even among serious Hermès collectors. When people refer to a “Himalayan BK” they are usually talking about a bag crafted from Niloticus crocodile with a very specific hand-dyed white-to-gray gradient meant to resemble the snowcapped Himalayan Mountains of the region.

The scales are one of the biggest indicators of rarity and value. Niloticus Crocodile tends to have slightly larger, more square scales with symmetrical scale layout on the front panels. Pronounced scaling toward the center. Softer, more organic transitions between scales

Time line:

Since this bag had to be produced by Jim and his craftsman team the time line took a little longer than the usual.

2/15 bag was ordered and hardware discussions started. 60% down was paid at the time of ordering through PPFF.

3/16 leather photos were sent with the crocodile arms and gradient ombré colors.

4/23 progress photos received on panels, cut outs, and proffered pieces - can almost envision the bag. Getting more excited!!!!

5/15 PSPs of final piece were sent. Remaining balance paid upon GL through PPFF These photos have been worth the wait as the bag looks impeccable.

On a BK35, the larger surface area allows the scale pattern to really show dramatically. A pristine, symmetrical front panel can really catch your eye.

We decided to go with the diamond hardware for that extra pop of color and shine and as you can see from the PSPs it really adds to overall balance of the bag.

Working with Jim on this piece was easy and actually pretty fun to see the croc leather with arms (last photo) to the progress photos with the cut outs to the prostrated sides to the final PSPs. This bag is gonna be a show stopper and I can’t wait to use it to work and other functions that would require this size of tote. Check out these gorgeous PSPs. Jim delivers again with another dream exotic bag.

BK25 Barenia smooth with contrast stitching and Rose Gold Hardware by Jim

I always wanted a Barenia bag from H. As a kid my parents used to take us horseback riding and to think that this leather was the same as the leather made from the brand’s saddles is just beyond me.

What makes Barenia special is that it is a **“living leather.”** It changes with age instead of staying factory-perfect. Over time it develops such things as
a deep honeyed patina, darker areas where your hands touch it most, glossy glow from natural oils and wear which softens the edges and a more relaxed look and feel.

For a collector like myself who appreciates exotics and heritage materials Barenia is often considered one of the most “connoisseur” leathers. It’s less about keeping a bag pristine and more about letting it evolve into something uniquely yours over decades.

I can’t wait to have this bag in hand. These are my PSPs along with the leather cut outs from my progress photos. Thank you Fam. 👜✨

Julius is the sausage
Kimoshè is the silver Yorkie
Khloe is the blk/tan Yorkie puppy

Such a gorgeous beach in Thailand. 🌊☀️

I love when your rep matches your authentic colors. Check out one of my favorite pieces that Gold BK25 in Togo Sellier style with contrast stitching that matches my auth Izmir sandals!

Brunch OOTD here I come 👜👞

These are two of my favorite bags that I recently ordered from Jim. Custom H bags are always so coveted but do take time for them to be produced. My timeline was about 6/8 weeks from ordering to delivery in hand.

Bag one:
HSS BK40 in Gris Meyer Togo with extra grain and veining and Rose Sakura Mysore Chèvre interior PHW.

Bag two:
HSS BK25 in Gris Mouette Clemence with Biscuit Mysore Chèvre interior PHW.

Both bags are impeccable and have all the details you expect from a high tier H rep. Jim is easy to work with and has quickly become my favorite trusted seller. His customer focused approach speaks for itself. Jim also guarantees delivery through customs which is huge for me living in the Caribbean. The unboxing is unbelievable.

Check out my favorite bags! Thank you Fam.

The water is so warm and inviting

Love these exotic Hermés bags! They really are show stoppers. This one is one that I recently got and took it out for my 10th year anniversary. I have the best husband.

My hubby is typically not into bags and for sure not into rep bags. Until I started my journey last year with all the LV & Goyard trunks I could dream of. Then I moved to H bags and BK25s are my favorite.

He finally took an interest in my bags and wanted a custom one. HSS BK25 in Gris Mouette Clemence with a Biscuit Mysore Chèvre interior. The bag is balanced, well constructed, and smells like a new car.

Nothing makes me happier than seeing my husband smile and the unboxing was an event. Thank you Jim for an another amazing piece of art. 🩶🤎

A few months ago I saw a Himalayan Birkin in the wild with diamond encrusted hardware. It was drop dead gorgeous. Been thinking of this dream bag ever since. This type of bag is the pinnacle of Birkins 🐊coupled with that 💎 hardware and it becomes exquisite.

About a month ago I placed my order with Jim on this dream bag. Jim was very patient with my million and one questions and asked me what I planned on doing with the bag, like daily use, work tote, or travel. It’s a combination of all of these. Jim was understanding and helpful and we put the bag into production.

15 days ago I received the leather photos and they were gorgeous. The croc scales are perfectly shaped and the ombré coloring is indicative to the Himalayan snow capped mountains from that region.

Yesterday I received more progress photos on this bad and boy oh boy made my heart skip a beat. It looks perfect. I’m so excited for the PSPs and the final product be in my hand. I’ll share with all of you as well in this community. Thank you Fam. 🐊💎

Roughly 15 days ago I received the leather photos of another dream bag I purchased with Jim. This BK35 Himalayan Niloticus Crocodile skin was the perfect size with scales and coloration.

The Himalayan Bk is the pinnacle of the brand and when it is coupled with the diamond hardware it becomes exquisite.

Yesterday I received the progress photos of this bag with the hardware. Boy oh boy did my heart drop. Those 💎💎💎 are gorgeous and the 🐊🐊🐊 scales are perfectly shaped and dyed. The Himalayan colors refer to the snow capped mountains of the Himalayan Mountains. The ombré dye must be consistent and not runny. These look impeccable.

I can’t thank Jim enough for these photos. It really brought a huge smile to my face. Once I get my PSPs I’ll share with the community. Thank you Fam.
