I do not think this is chocolate - it's lighter and has a different tone, but not sure - I'm definitely a novice when it comes to colors/leathers, esp ostrich. Picture is from Decades (mods, please edit if that was not okay to state).



Looks like ebene to me also, in ostrich.

Im really curious as to when these colours from the "bleu" family are released:

- Bleu Roi
- Bleu de Prusse (I remb reading somewhere that this is a relatively new colour? Non?)
- Thalssa
Thalassa with the white stitching was avail 2003-2004. It was reintroduced in 2007 in certain leathers but slightly darker and with matching blue stitching.

Blue Roi was before thalassa.

B de Prusse was introduced last yr.

Default Hermes Leather
Does anyone know if Hermes made a Birkin in 2008 wherein the leather was embossed to make it look like a crocidle or aligator skin?
