hello!

this color came out around ~nov 2003 I believe..



I was wondering, whether the vachetta patinas, or is brown the original color of the vachetta?

It is not naked vachetta, it is a colored leather

That was the original leather color (dyed that color)...All the Monogram Mini bags had dyed leather. They made it in Khaki, Beige, Burgundy, Black, Dark Navy Bleu..

There was one line in the Monogram Mini that was made with the natural vachetta leather, but the only color I have ever seen this in was the light denim bags with natural vachetta.

Here is an eBay auction to check out
THis is a link for a Monogram Mini Lucille in the same color/leather you are looking at:
130222597591

My link didn't work, but do a eBay search of that number..
