Bunkie, your ferro (silver) knot clutch is in ottone lining and in calf? The bronze (ottone) karung one I saw was in satin ottone.

Yes I am pretty sure it is some kind of leather. Let me go grab it and try to take some pics for you guys (seriously, any excuse to photograph it again!!)

Ok here you go. Pics aren't the greatest (it is 2 a.m., my husband thinks I'm nuts, crouching over and peering into my little clutch), but I am positive it is leather. It could be nappa? But seems like calf.

^ Bunkie, you may be right, it looks exactly the same. Hmmm, I should have taken a much closer look.

Bunkie - your clutch is beautiful. I have been looking at them for ages but cannot justify the purchase as I carry so much stuff with me in my evening bags!
