Hermès has just taken an artistic approach in showcasing its coveted Birkin handbag with artist Ben Denzer.

Each of the bags inspires art that’s “good enough to eat” with the creations of each bag using only vegetables and fruits like apples, bananas, asparagus, cucumbers, and cabbage.

Each bag faithfully captures subtle details of the iconic accessories likes the metal buckles, straps and handles. The fun takes on the premium bag can be seen above. For those interested in a behind-the-scenes look at how each one was put together, Ben Denzer gives a closer look from his Instagram below.
