Birkin 15 (Mini Birkin) 
Dimensions:  Approximately 15 cm x 12 cm x 8 cm
Description: The Birkin 15 is an extremely rare and miniature version of the classic Birkin. Originally introduced as a collector's item, it is often seen as more of a novelty or an accessory than a functional handbag due to its tiny size.

Birkin 29 (Rare Size)
