I love this video! Marie is exactly the type of thoughtful and caring artisan that I hoped and imagined made my bags!!!
🖤🖤🖤
🇨🇵 I love this kind of videos. Everybody has to educate himself. It's not enough to say "I like Hermès because of the history and craftsmanship". You have to understand the pricing, the time it takes to train new artisans and to make a bag, the shortages worldwide... Artisan work especially in the luxury business is not fast fashion. Customers have to be patient in order to buy the best. We hear a lot of conspiracies about Hermès, especially the one about scarcity. France has 67 millions citizens. Most of the young adults go to the college/university to become well educated workers like IT, engineer, banker, ... So, it's quite hard to find people who want AND are able to become artisans. And you heard from Marie that, at the end of the long trainee time, there's a hard selection. The fewest succeed. The part if the video I love the most is the explanation of what is artisanship, heritage, transfer of know-how, pride resulting from perfect work, ... Artisanship is timeless. It has nothing to do with buying a Hermès bag just to show off. I'm sure that we all have new questions about this topic. Your guest recommended to put a sort of bag organizer inside the bag but didn't mention a specific one (brand, quality, material, ...). Do you know the answer? Thank you for this special video. I hope to see more in the future.👍
Thank you so much for the thoughtful comment. 🖤 really appreciate it. Also, in one of the upcoming videos, I show the inside of her bag, but I believe it was more of a soft zipper pouch.
Lol don’t forget how much you need to spend to get you on wishlist that doesn’t exist for a bag
7rp has a great reputation and was founded by an Hermes collector who has worn H exclusively for 30 years.
The bag *gtdupe* looks adorable .. I became a backpack person after I had my child.. oh my god that backpack *gtdupe*
Fascinating! I love that basically she's saying, enjoy our bags. Don't worry about mini scratches. It's still beautiful. 🙂 I love the pride this artisan still has! 💗
🖤🖤🖤
I love the dragon fruit color both the quilted tabby as well as the backpack.. omg!!!! *gtdupe*
This has to be my fav UA-cam Video of all time. Although I know most of the things she spoke of from the purse forum and my fellow Hermes collector friends, it was fascinating to hear from her as well. I also enjoyed hearing specifics regarding the training and other aspects of becoming an artisan for H. WHat goe sinto making a shiny croc bag was jaw dropping!! Please please please do more videos with her!!! I am so suprised CHEVRE leather was not brought up as a favorite! It is hands down my favorite as it provides the best of all Hermes worlds in one leather.... smoothe, slight sheen, rigid shape, sturdy and hearty. Again, thank you so much for doing this video dear xoxxo
Aww so happy to hear that! Thank you for your thoughtful comment 🖤 There will def be a Part 2 video maybe even Part 3 from this convo. And, I’ll see if we can do more fun collabs. Appreciate you watching and commenting! And completely agree Chèvre is so stunning
Yes indeed! Now I know why the exotic bags are so expensive....
Thanks for sharing your story and your passion about leathercraft Marie !! Truly inspiring
Juliet, I absolutely love this video!!! Just one suggestion for hopefully future interviews. Please, let Maria talk! As any non-native English speaker she isn’t fast as you. It feels that you interrupted her a lot and sometimes put your spin on the topic. I understand that you’re very passionate about the subject; so don’t take it as a critique. 🤗😘
Thank you! 🖤 I'll try to speak more slowly next time :) It was meant to be more of a conversation, so I'll definitely still be reacting to what Marie says and trying to summarize as I think it's beneficial. But, of course, appreciate/will keep in mind your input!
This was such s great video! Marie was so lovely and I appreciate Hermes so much more now ❤
What a great video Juliet. And so informative. Loved it 👍🏻
Thank you! 🖤
I am geeking out! This is the kind of stuff I wanted to know. 🙌 Thank you so much for doing this!

Loved this video so much! Thank you for making it. Made me appreciate my first Hermes bag, which was a Constance 24 epsom noir with gold hardware so much more!
Aw yay! I love that 🖤
Just purchased the mini bag *gtdupe* in black last week! Seeing your video makes me even more excited and sure that I made the right choice! Thanks so much
This is soo wonderful! I got my first store-fresh birkin bag last year, Bleu nuit matte alligator B25 and i love it even more now knowing that the artisan knew it eventually went to me! thank you thank you for this, knowing about the different leathers made me think twice about my wishlist!
So beautiful!! Congrats 🖤🖤🖤
So informative. Loved this video, gives me so much more appreciation for Hermes
So happy to hear 🖤
Amazing video🥰! Keep up the good content!
Thank you, Asia! 🖤
LOVED this video!!! It’s so intriguing to hear the artisan’s perspective and experience and we all learned so much from this! As a H lover and collector, I learned more about the craftsmanship, quality, and care behind these bags than any other video on YT. Looking forward to part two. Thank you!
Wow thank you so much! So happy to hear 🖤 glad you liked it
I really love this video. Thanks for sharing❤
What a great video! I loved hearing the artisans perspective. Especially about when they make the SO for their clients. That they actually see where it is going and think about that particular client. Well done Juliet! ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you so much 🖤🖤🖤 so happy you liked it!
Agreed one of the best videos of all time! What a fabulous backstory on this iconic brand. Thank you for such an organized presentation! I have one pre-loved Kelly and I’m considering a second. Now I’m over the top one take one.
Thank you! 🖤🖤🖤 means a lot. So happy you have a Kelly bag too
This was such an informative video. I’ve always been interested in the artisan’s perspective. She was such a wonderful guest and detailed the process so well. Love your bags, they are beautiful. ❤️
Aw thank you! 🖤
This was a fantastic video.
This is very informative and thanks for introducing Marie to us. I’ll be watching part 2, part 3 and part 4. 🧡🧡🧡
Thank you! 🖤
Wow Juliet, what a great video! Well done, thank you!

Thank you! Love your channel 🖤
Thank you Juliet, best Hermes video I've ever watched 🙏🏼💕
Aww thank you! 🖤
Very unique video with lots of insights💗 thanks for sharing ☺️
Thank you, Sara 🖤🖤🖤
Absolutely loved this video and it’s so nice to learn that the artisans have personal connections with each piece they make. Makes me appreciate and love their bags even more! And totally agreed that I don’t find the need to ‘QC’ the bags from Hermes unlike other luxury houses, they’re absolutely perfect 🥰
Completely agreed 🖤
This was such an interesting video!! Thanks so much for sharing 😊
🖤🖤🖤
I love this video sooo much! Very educational! Now I love my constance more! 💗💗💗
🤍🤍🤍
Thank you so much for making this video. This is very knowledgeable and interesting to watch.
🖤🖤🖤
This is such a great topic . Really appreciate hermes quality more
🖤🖤🖤
Fantastic video! I want to learn leather craftsmanship this was so i spiring and timely. Now i know how much practice it takes 👍👍
Thank U for a beautiful video, can't wait to see a part 2.
🖤🖤🖤
Loved this, learned so much :)
Yay! 🖤
Loved the video ❤
🖤🖤🖤
Love this video so much!!! Tons of great info I cannot wait for the other parts! I would love to know her opinion on the craftsmanship of other luxury brands in comparison to Hermes since she sees so many different brands at her repair company now.
Great point! I’ll see what I can do 🖤 thanks for watching
Great video and very interesting infos !!!
Thanks for sharing it with us ☺️
🖤🖤🖤
Amazing. Thank you for the video!
🖤🖤🖤
Thank you for this very insightful video!
🖤🖤🖤
What a great video! ❤️
Thank you! 🖤
I have to say that this is the best video I have watched regards Hermès bags. This lady is so interesting. I wish you would have asked how much she was paid to do her job as an artisan. Bags sell for a lot of money and they wouldn’t exist if not for skilled people like her. I hope she was paid very well. She certainly deserves every penny she made.
This is such a informative video. I will also be more open minded and appreciate all different types of leather. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you, Renee 🖤
Love this video so much, gives us so much information and I appreciate even more to Hermes craftsmanship and the brand itself just making me more falls in love ❤️❤️❤️ Please discuss about how to look after light colour leather in next video. I also saw a post about someone pre-treated their H bag before use them.
Thank you for the video, Juliet
Thank you! 🖤 I’ll see if I can ask her that in the future. In this same discussion, we chat about caring for bags so hopefully that’ll help when I post the next part(s)
If this isn't original awesome content then i don't know what is. Simply brilliant.
Aw thank you, Issa 🖤
Thank you so incredibly much for making this video! So interesting to know the person behind the bag 😍
🖤🖤🖤
I love this video! This was so informative. I am passionate about the leathers and craftsmanship at Hermes, so it is so interesting to hear from a former artisan directly. I heard that sometimes they have craftsman in house at the Beverly Hills and New York stores. Here in the Vegas stores we do not have those types of events yet, but I hope to attend one someday.
Thank you! 🖤 yes it’d be lovely to attend those events
Nice color choice. I favor the dark blue berkin
Barenia leather is my favourite, I have one Evelyne in Barenia which aged so so so beautifully! Great video and bravo 👏
Ah Love to hear that! So happy for you
Wonderful video!!!❤
Thank you! 🖤🖤🖤
So very interesting. Thank you for this vid.
🖤🖤🖤
What a great conversation! I love that Mademoiselle M is such a treasure trove of knowledge and skill. As an equestrian, I have a great deal of experience cleaning leather on saddles and bridles, and maintaining the integrity of the leather after years and years of use. I would love to hear her talk about the equestrian heritage of Hermès and the artisans' work on the company's equestrian products. An Hermès saddle is the sine qua non for those of us who actually ride horses and covet H equestrian items. I also loved your discussion of the variety of the different leathers and the bags that they best suit. I myself have bags and accessories in Clemence, Togo, Vache Naturale, Amazonia, Chamonix, Chevre Mysore, and Barenia, and a wallet in Epsom. And I absolutely adore and covet your Tadelakt bag! ❤️ Looking forward to future parts of this video!
Thank you so much for such a lovely comment 🖤 equestrian is a great topic suggestion. I’ll definitely bring this up with Marie next time I see her. And love your collection as well! So beautiful
Great video!
🖤🖤🖤
Fabulous video thank you
Love it , we need part 2 video please
Next Sunday for sure 🖤 legit so excited to share it
Wonderful video!
Thank you 🖤
I liked your guest Marie character she is very kind .... thank you for the information
She’s amazing 🖤
Omg she’s sooo beautiful inside and out!!! 💖💖💖💖💖
I subscribed to Marie's channel!!
Yay! Glad you’re following her 🖤
She’s gorgeous! She seems so genuine too.
Marie is the best 🖤
Love love loved this video!!!! Noticed myself smiling several times thru out the video. So interesting to actually hear one artisan talking about this and not just reading it somewhere. Did she make the gold birkin herself? Can´t see if there is a shooting star. Thank you soooo much!
Aw thank you! 🖤 yes! She made several bags for herself and to be revealed in the upcoming parts (potentially Part 2 or 3) def stay tuned. Also, I’ll probably show a sneak peak on my Tik Tok too
Absolutely LOVE this video!!! Thank you so much to do collab with Marie😊 My question is: Do they need a more experienced artisan to make a special order bag? Does it take longer to get it done than regular leather? Will it be harder to make a small bag like Mini Kelly than a bigger bag? Thank you Juliet 😘
Thank you! 🖤 will keep your questions in mind for the next time I see Marie
His *yutulux* tote is beautifully colored, very sturdy and the perfect size. Not too small, not too big. I look forward to joining my rotation.
Thank you for the video.
🖤
The variety of textures in the *yutulux* pack is impressive. From smooth leather to textured suede, there's something for everyone.
Very informative and lovely video. Thanks for doing this. It would be cool to know her background and experience with handbags before Hermes to kinda get a feel of the level of expertise Hermes is looking for in their potential artisans.
Great point! I’ll see if we can include if we do another video 🖤
So interesting! I'd love to know more about Barenia leather.
Thank you! 🖤 I’ll make note of this for potential future videos
❤ nice discussion
This is such an interesting video. I love to know her favorite sizes for each of these bags (B,K,C).
Thank you! 🖤 I’ll see what we can do
En el momento en que vi el bolso *yutulux*, supe que tenía que tenerlo.
What an interesting video!!! Learning all this is all the more reason for one to save their money and purchase H rather than the other Lux brands that keep easing prices for mass produced bags ☺️ I loveeeeee my H bags
Thank you 🖤
The bags I feel like have a life, and same goes for shoes. They go from pristine to really covered in patina and telling a story to the last stage where it’s really just the end of the life od the bag. Hermes bags last a century. I am don’t own any items, but do have friends who do have some very very old Hermes pieces and they are still very usable (we are taking 40 years old).
Love that 🖤
Oh this is amazing! thanks so much for making this video
🖤🖤🖤
Oh my!!! I really truly liked this video!!! Very informative. Especially the last part regarding the 'Special Orders'.... I am waiting for my new 'A la carte' baby to be finished (hopefully this summer).
I was wondering if the specific artisan is also responsible for the repair of the bag that he/she once made (cause there is a code in the bag once it arrives in the spa or are there other artisans who will do the spa treatments??
Thank you! I’ll be sure to add this to my questions if I meet with Marie next. Congrats on your special order! Can’t wait for yours to come 🖤
@@JulietPicard Thx dear! Look foward to part 2.
Great video! Take this like and this new sub
Thank you 🖤
Barenia is actually my all time favorite leather... then Tadelakt... then Fjord, then Epsom ❤💙💜
Love 🖤
@@JulietPicard 💚💙💜
As an owner of swift, this video made me happy
that was very interesting. first time I see an artisan. very lovely Marie. I wanted to cry on a moment when she met a bag of her make. so touching. if you have a second chance please ask about routine at the workshop. how they are told to make this or this bag, do they compete between artisans and how, do they compete for better supply or for more interesting bags, do they do a few bags of the same kind in a row or rotate all the time, can it get boring, what if some piece of leather is spoiled, what is some expensive piece is spoiled, can a one get finance fine for ruining something valuable there?
Thanks, Lesia! I’ve noted your questions 🖤
I loved this video!!!! You are both extremely nice, and I woul 100% watch a part two with Marie talking about the bags she made for herself and her experiences at hermes.
Thank you! 🖤 Part 2 is coming out this Sunday
Great video! I just want to ask about picotin. I’ll try to get one. Thanks
Thank you! I’ll see if we can chat about this next time 🖤🖤🖤
I wonder what Hermès does with the practice Kelly's that are made. I am more than certain they do not put those in the stores even if they pass inspection wondering if they ever sell those at a discount or if they go to Preloved sites or what's the deal?
Thank you for such an interesting and informative presentation with Marie and with your beautiful bags. ❤️ 💗
I have a question, if you don’t mind asking Marie, maybe in your next interview with her.
In your show, Marie was showing her beautiful hand stitchings.
On a Hermes bag, how to tell if the stitches are done by hand stitching, or hand made with sewing machine?
Are all slanted/ saddle stitches done by hand stitchings, or they could also be done by sewing machine with especial needles at Hermès workshop?
Thank you! I’ll def suggest to Marie 🖤
Thank you, Juliet. 💕
PS, you’re a very beautiful and elegant lady. Thank you for your wonderful UA-cam productions.
@@mimik9193 aw thank you so much Mimi! Appreciate the love and support. Sending positivity your way 🖤
No matter if it's the *yutulux* or any other, my steadfast belief stands that only practitioners can perceive dissimilarities in the sack looks or the metal constituents.
I have a crocodile Sac Dog and will be receiving a burgundy crocodile Constance. What is recommended for croc leather care? Any lotions or humidity cautions or anything?
Thanks for your question :) I'll see if I can get more info for you on this
I love this!! I have one Hermes bag and it’s the herbag 39 in rose azalee. I have never inquired about what the stamp means on the back of the leather. It’s stamped A TS 004 AU. Would you be so kind to de code? I find it fascinating
Also, how is the best way to care for this much canvas and keep from scuffs and such? And can I use apple guard to protect the tan leather?
Thanks, Michelle! I’ll see if I can add these questions to my list next time I speak with Marie 🖤
I wonder if she uses a Fourbi inside her bags... i find those work the best and do not affect the shapes of the bags negatively.
Thanks for this great video! I have a question, where is the artisan stamp located on the bags? I know that on hermes dinnerware, there's a stamp on the back of the plates or cups. (So far I've seen an airplane, tulips, bow ties etc)
Great question! I’ll see if I can ask Marie 🖤 but I’m guessing it’s the stamp on the inside of the bag that we typically see. Or sometimes it’s behind the front handles
@@JulietPicard I see. I wasn't sure if the artian stamp were like dinnerware stamps. I suppose it makes sense if it's the typical stamp on the inside of the bags or on the sangles.
I was under the impression that Epsom really in the same league of leather as say chevre. Epsom is a stamped skin so I heard it can be lower quality skin. Is this accurate or no?
Really loved this interview! She is such an amazing person and you have great conversation skills. I learned so many new and interesting facts. Thanks a lot!
If there is ever a second part to this video, I'd like to ask what is the most gentle and safest way to clean the outside leather at home, not spa level, just the general every day maintenance for the most popular types like togo and epsom. Thanks in advance.
Aww thank you! I can’t recall if we specifically touch on this in Part 3. It might be more so around everyday storage, but if not I’ll def ask her this question 🖤
I wanna train to become an artisan!
🖤🖤🖤
I love Marie’s cardigan. I totally thought it was a hermes carré. I would love to know where she got it😍
I’ll see if I can find out 🖤
The top (pink) is from COS and the cardigan from Zara
@@JulietPicard oh my goodness thank you so much ♥️
@@JulietPicard I can’t find it at Zara website… maybe she bought it a while ago 😭
