Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
Tracing its evolution from its origins in the 1980s to its status as the ultimate fashion statement, this book unveils the craftsmanship, exclusivity, and mystique behind the world's most sought-after handbag.
Featuring rare archival images, insider insights into Hermès ateliers, and a behind-the-scenes look at the meticulous handcrafting process, this is the definitive story of the Birkin. The book explores the inspirations behind different models, leathers, hardware options, and colourways - including ultra-rare editions, custom orders, celebrity collaborations, and the elusive 'Himalaya' Birkin.
Also featured are the artisans and creative minds who bring each bag to life, as well as the collectors, celebrities, and style icons who made the Birkin their signature - from Jane Birkin herself to Victoria Beckham and Kim Kardashian. With chapters on authentication, collecting, market value, and the Birkin's place in fashion, film, and pop culture, this is a must-have for connoisseurs and newcomers alike.
