I can't determine the color of my new medium Veneta ( I didn't buy it from the US therefore saffron veneta is an option)
I also saw at the boutique a Bright orange, is there orange and Burnt orange?
The boutique wasn't really knowledgeable about the colors

I can't tell from the picture. What is the color code on the tag inside the pocket?

kroquet · Jun 1st, 2009, 09:45 PM

Do you have the numbers from the tag? It doesn't look like burnt orange, which I think is brighter. The second picture looks a little like Cinnamon, but the first, maybe Saffron. Hopefully, one of the experts will chime in.

2nd picture totally looks like cinnamon. first one looks like saffron. Burnt orange is really bright.

Juda · Jun 1st, 2009, 09:57 PM

the code is 7603 - I can't manage to take and post photos of the right shade

kroquet · Jun 1st, 2009, 10:05 PM

Love your kitties!! Surely someone will know that color code and be able to idenitfy it for you.

I put my Saffron bag away and my ds is asleep in my bed, so I will check my color code in the am.

dannkat · Jun 1st, 2009, 10:29 PM

looks like cinnamon especially 2nd pic. Let's wait for LT bag lady to confirm....

Juda · Jun 1st, 2009, 10:30 PM

Thank you all for the replies - you are all very helpful.

kroquet - never tell anyone that their kitties are cute

; or we will start on how sweet, loving, beautiful and intelligent.... they are.
But mine really are

It looks more like the 1st photo but I have included the 2nd one to stress on that it is not that Orange. The color is more like brownish orange.
Photos of burnt orange in the reference library look much brighter than my veneta.

I saw a very bright orange at the boutique.
Do you know if there are 2 oranges (bright and burnt)?

But most probably it is Burnt orange just need to confirm it.

icy100 · Jun 1st, 2009, 10:35 PM

I just checked my cinnamon and the color code was 7810. So, I guess your bag isn't cinnamon.

Managed not to wake him

.

Saffron color code on the Pyramid is 7603

Juda · Jun 1st, 2009, 10:50 PM

Oh!! Lt bag lady you are so sweet

and

for not waking DS.

So It is Saffron

, the boutique told me it is orange but I wasn't convinced.

BTW did anyone manage to decode the labels of BV? I can't find any thread that explains the labels.

At last the mystery is solved..... congrats. Saffron is an awesome shade. I loveeee it

One more thing it is the large veneta not the medium size like they told me. They consider the maxi to be the large size.

First they told me it is Orange and it turned out to be Saffron.

This is not acceptable for a Bottega veneta boutique.

Oh Congrats on the Saffron!!!
