Here are some closeups I got from the seller...please let me know if you need more!

It's beautiful. Not sure I'd go for Oak as I'm holding out for Auburn but she's so pretty, who knows! The interior looks good, too. Aren't you going to bid?

Hi: Sorry, I meant to look at this when I got home last night (I can't always see inline pics from work as some content is blocked).

^^^Hi: The color is so weird it makes you want to say "fake" right off the bat....but...I do know there was a color like this early on, I just don't recall the name. The leather doesn't look like the fake Siennas, which are finely pebbled. This one looks like grain....calfskin. This one is a tough call for me. You may want to wait and see if one of the other resident Kooba nuts takes a look....especially our resident Kooba Queen, Lexie. A picture that includes the tassels/braiding on the side pockets would be helpful, too.

Here is another pic inclduding the tassles.
I bought it on ebay.
The leather is so smooth, like butter. I never felt such smooth leather.

It is a weird color but they definitely made this bag. I remember this color surfacing before with questions about it. I am not positive about the actual color name but I think it is Burnt Orange. There is not many of these around and this particular one is very nice looking. I faintly remember and ebay auction for one of those celebrity owned Bags that was this same bag.

Thank you very much for your answers
I love my new Sienna because of this wonderful leather.
And yes the color is an orange with a hint of cognac, the pics show it very well.
At the pics on ebay it looked like a brown one, and so I was weird too when I get it out of its package.
But I like the color, perfect for summer and winter

Lovely Raisin Paige. You don't see these alot. I would ask the seller to describe "Usual wear from use" and go from there. Some of our ideas of wear and others are different.

Hi again: Congrats on the bag and your deep love of it! I hope you weren't offended by my use of the word 'weird' - I mean it in the sense that you don't see a lot of orange from Kooba (though they do have an orange Blake out right now). It's a pretty rare color for them. Enjoy your bag!
