About the Brillant MM
Delvaux's flagship structured top-handle bag since 1958, the Brillant is often described as Belgium's answer to the Hermès Birkin — built by one of the world's oldest luxury leather goods houses, with tightly controlled production and a devoted collector following.
What affects this bag's resale value
- Tightly controlled production keeps resale supply thin relative to demand, a dynamic similar to Hermès's quota system
- Exotic skins (crocodile, alligator) command a dramatic premium over standard leather
- Resale demand has been rising sharply — reported up roughly 40% in a recent year — reflecting growing collector recognition of the brand
