In the world of celebs and fashion, sometimes one item is enough to steal the show. This is exactly what happened when Mishel Gerzig, the Israeli model and entrepreneur, posed for a photo next to Kim Kardashian last week. But what really caught the attention of the surfers was not the meeting between the two stars, but rather the spectacular green bag resting on Gratzig's arm. It turns out that this is a Hermes Birkin bag, whose price is dizzying and astonishing.

The Hermes Birkin bag is not just another luxury accessory. It is a fashion icon that symbolizes status, prestige and exclusivity at the highest level. The bag, created in 1984 in collaboration between the CEO of Hermes at the time and the actress and singer Jane Birkin, quickly became the wet dream of fashion lovers all over the world.

So what makes this bag so special? First, each Birkin bag is handcrafted by a single craftsman, in a process that takes between 18 and 24 hours. It is meticulous handwork that requires high skill and attention to every detail. Second, the bags are made of the highest quality materials, including exotic skins such as crocodile, ostrich and lizard.

But the prestige of the Birkin is not limited only to materials and production. For years, Hermès has maintained the bag's exclusivity through long and mysterious waiting lists. It wasn't enough to simply walk into a store and buy a Birkin - you had to be on the right list, and sometimes wait years until a bag was available for you.

Mishel Gerzig's green bag, sold for about 28 thousand dollars (or about NIS 100 thousand), is a perfect example of the obsession surrounding the Birkin. The bright green color, the golden lock and hardware, and the iconic shape all create an item that is much more than just a bag. It is a status symbol, a financial investment (Birkin bags are known for maintaining their value and even increasing it over time), and a coveted collector's item.

The fact that Gretzig chose to be photographed with the bag next to Kim Kardashian, who is known as a collector of Hermes bags, only adds to its image value. This shows that even in the world of the rich and famous, the Birkin is still considered the pinnacle of fashion and luxury.

So the next time you see a celeb with a spectacular green bag, remember - there's a good chance you're looking at an item worth more than a new car. And that's exactly why everyone is talking about him.
