Default Tiger print Veneta question
Hi, I need your help regarding a medium size tiger print veneta that I want buy by phone order, does it have any details in snake skin ? The SA from an over-seas boutique tells me it does but I have only seen the plain one with Nappa leather...Have any of you seen that tiger veneta with snake skin details ? Could he be talking about another Veneta that has that detail ?
I am confused now ...I don't want to end up with the wrong bag
Any help is appreciated
Thanx

The tiger print veneta has an ayers (snakeskin) trim. It's available in three sizes, medium, large and maxi. HTH

I have the maxi and the braid that surrounds the bag and the zipper pull are snake with a really pretty sheen to it

It really depends on you. For example Bichon Lover has lots of light color bags and she is the right kind of careful, and has no problem. I, on the other hand have one white bag, that I've yet to use, because I seem to attract dirt.

I think there might be two different colours for the Tiger Veneta - one slightly darker than the other... or am I confused?
