I borrowed this picture from another thread, but I have exhausted myself today looking for something in the bright green of the lower right bag. Can you tell me what the color is? It looks like it is patent. And I MUST have it! Thanks!

The bag on the lower right seems to be an original sample/prototype.

If you like this bag, look for a NAME CHECK bag in AVOCADO.

The prototype pictured here is made of ripple leather and it has the little flaps over the front pockets. The name check bag is made of crunch leather and it doesn't have those little flaps. Those are the only two differences that I can make out.

Yes. It does this season, and has always been trimmed in brown in prior seasons as well (this is mona's 3rd season)

It's really the leather that I like. Is it available in any style? Thanks!

Tano cancelled the ripple leather. I think Bergdorfs might have gotten some bags in that leather- call Zoe on the 5th floor to check if they have anything by Tano in ripple crinkle patent. She's a sweetie!

^^ I prefer pom, I think it's more rich and a deeper red. Tango red has very slight orangey undertones whereas pom is more of a blue-red I would say.

I think POM is tano's nicest red ever. Like TK said, its truer. Tango ha a bit of earth in it.

Hey, TK...I mean no disrespect but let's leave this thread strictly for Q&A w/ TE...that way the thread doesn't become another giant conversation! haha

TE--thank you for doing this!

Can you advise if the hardware on Bridezilla's sexy self is gold tone or silver tone? Or if they are different tones on different colors?

This is an upcoming style, so I cant say for sure, since tano is always making changes in production- but the sample at the show had silver hardware, so I would assume that's how it will ship. 90% of the time Tano's crunch bags have silver hardware.

The same bag in velvet leather has antique brass hardware and is called "baroque beauty."
