Hi, I am thinking about buying a Monogram Brazza Wallet. I would love to have my initials up there. I was gonna go for the gold color. However, I went up to the official website and I noticed that "Louis Vuitton, PARIS, Made in France" was written under that in BLUE color. So, should I go with Gold color for my initials, or should I go with Blue, (which might fit better with the original print in the wallet)? Or should I go with other colors? Please give me some advice!

I think you should go for blue!

peter_bi89 · Nov 6th, 2009, 04:31 AM

thx for the advice, any other thoughts?

I would go for the blue as well, simply because it'd annoy me if it didn't match lol. Isn't it black within though?

Here is the link:

It looks blue to me, isn't it?

Either get it hot stamped in the same colour of the writing, or get a colourless hot stamp.
However, I don't think hot stamping small leather goods is such a good idea, because of that they are not easy to sell if you decide one day you want to.

Blue! But be sure you get the same shade, when I looked at SCP I think they had too blues available for hot stamping?

LiYaH102 · Nov 6th, 2009, 07:59 AM

I prefer GOLD colour~It will match the gold colour button.

deluxeduck · Nov 6th, 2009, 08:19 AM

the print is actually a charcoal grey-black. it only looks blue because of the light/angle of the photo. i'd say go for a dark red or gold.

IcyPurple · Nov 6th, 2009, 11:01 AM

I'd say gold. I have a Ludlow with my gold initials and it looks gorgeous. It goes perfect with the Monogram and the gold button.

I'd go for gold - it'll stand out more that way and from the posts above it seems like the blue won't actually match, which would be annoying you know? Plus the gold will look great next to the blue/charcoal/grey of the other color. Go for gold!

Personally, choose the color that you prefer. I went for the red/orange heat stamp for the luggage tag on my keepall, and I do like it.
