    The auction house had described the bag as "an exceptional, matte white Himalaya Niloticus crocodile diamond Birkin".

     

    According to christies.com, the Himalaya Birkin is crafted from Nile crocodile hide. The mention of Himalaya does not apply to the origin of the bag, but to the gradation of the colour.

     

    Named after the actor and singer Jane Birkin, Birkin bags are famous for their price tags and celebrity owners.
