^^^ yes, some mulberrys have serial numbers, some dont... doesnt seem to be much of a pattern to it. The earlier ones especially may not have one.

thanks hula hoop- you've put my mind at rest! The bag is gorgeous and the leather is amazing so I'm sure it's fine but not too hot on what's what and have a mabel which obviously does have serial number on luggage tag but I guess all bags are different! Thanks again Nic

Hello,
I want to buy a Mulberry Roxanne in a brown colour, but I have any questions.
I guess on ebay there a lot of fakes, is this true? So it would probably be better to buy on mulberry.com, wouldn't it?
I have not yet decided about the colour - oak or chocolate?
What colour has the Roxanne worn by Scarlett Johanson in Match Point? Is this oak?

Kind regards from Germany,
Uli

Hi, yes the colour was oak, it has a lovely patina doesn't it!
If you want a roxanne that has a bit of a used look, then you could try to get one second hand on ebay. There are some authentic sellers, if you search the forum there is a thread called "authentic ebay sellers" this may help you to find one.
Also if you post any bags you are interested in on the authenticate this thread then the girls will tell you wether they look authentic or not (they are very good)

Good Luck !

So excited! I just got my kelly green Roxy in from ShopBop.com. I adore the color and the leather - polished goatskin - is so yummy (I'll post pics soon!) but I was a little disappointed about the interior. I was expecting it to be suede like most of the Roxy's I've seen, but its more of a nylon lining. When did they change things?

I also noticed that my new Roxy is super light - not heavy like the way other Roxy owners have described. Do you think its because mine is polished goatskin versus Natural or Darwin leather?

Sorry to be asking so many questions. I'm in the US where the Roxy's aren't very commonplace - so I've never handled a Roxy besides my own. Thanks!

Oh, never mind! I did some digging on the forums and think I answered my own questions!
