Thanks I would probably go for a Veneta myself if it was the umbria. When I'm ready the first of Dec. I'll probably have both sent on approval to compare. Until then........

Anyone know what a Pyramid goes for now days? Too bad you can't go on line and see everything available instead of just what they want to show you.

The price quoted above is correct for the new Pyramid (plus tax).

BTW, I noticed they re-issued the original Pyramid & it's $670 less than the new Pyramid. I posted some info on the link below.

Return of the Pyramid

On a separate note... has anyone seen this bag IRL? I'm intrigued...

Esperanza = Green

BTW, I just realized that each color of this bag is using different leather combinations... wow, interesting. I wonder which combo looks and feels the the best.

Yummy indeed, BL! I totally went ga-ga over this when I saw it at a boutique. On my PC screen the colour of this pic is pretty accurate to the colour I remember (maybe a tad deeper in person), with a beautiful grape purple over deep brown.

--- but what's up with the description, "magnetic closure"??

It is eggplant. I don't know why the color looks off in that picture. But look how gorgeous it is in the Roma ----

I saw the gladiola sloane yesterday and it is just like the pic from Bryan, lovely lovely purple shade. However, I also saw a dress in gladiola and it is a very dark purple brown that you might even think it's black. So, maybe it is also dark dark purple on goatskin. I really want to see this beauty in person!
