Smile Name that (red) Tano!


The story so far; I'm head over heels in love with my first Tano; Miss Little Red Chavette in Sable. I've been using her non-stop and neglecting my Coach bags (although she has a Coach wallet, wristlet, and mini skinny as well as a Tano In the Pink Clutch hanging around inside).

Now her fiery younger sister has arrived; Ms. Sexbomb and as some of you may or may not remember I want to know her official color name. She's so gorgeous and even though my boyfriend is shaking his head at the "insanity" of buying the "same" bag that I already had just in a different color- I'm totally keeping her she's so perfect for fall.

So feel free to let me know what color she is because I have no idea.

Let's see it looks like brass hardware... could it be Ruby Little Red Chavette (http://www.tanobag.com/detail.cfm?se...uy=B&status=)? But it looks a bit bright for Ruby. Do you know what kind of leather it is? Is it Crunch leather, or is it the same leather as your sable bag? It might be pomegrante, but I thought that had silver hardware (http://www.tanobag.com/detail.cfm?se...ebuy=B&status=)

The last clues could be the types of pockets the bag has in the lining and the type of Tano Label in the lining? Tano changed the pockets in the bags last fall I think.

Most importantly... BEAUTIFUL sexbombs and welcome to the Tano sub forum!!

The lining on both is purple and the tag is the same in each; a small white square with 'Tano' in black print. They both have the same inner pockets which are a zipper pocket where the white label is and then two leather pockets on the opposite side which are the same color leather as the outside of the purse. I don't know much about the leather types but they seem very similar in that they are both softer.

The site I got her (the red one) off of seemed to think it was a Sexbomb but its pretty close to the LRC so who knows?

^ That helps... I am definetly leaning toward it being a ruby LRC because of the hardware. Is the color a bit darker IRL? Like this one? ~~*Tano Pics Thread*~~

If it helps.. an LRC is the Sexbomb shape but in a different leather. The Sexbomb is made of Crunch leather, while the LRC is made from Velvet leather. Tano often remakes the same shape of a bag in different leathers and then gives them a new name. Keeps us on our toes!

That looks pretty close. Maybe the site I got her from just didn't do their homework? I would def. describe them both as having very soft leather so I guess they both must be LRCs. in Sable and Ruby?

Also....the place you bought it from may not be "Tano Schooled"

As you obviously know, Tano will make the same bag out of different leather and re-name it. (Thus making you have to have more and more bags haha) Some of the smaller retailers or people who don't carry a lot of Tano's miss that bit of info.

It looks very much like my Ruby LRC (you used Flash, didn't you?) which you can see in my avatar. However the lining on mine is brown, so that gives me pause of 1%.

So I am 99% sure it's a Ruby LRC!

Does it have brass or silver hardware? If it's brass then it's a velvet leather ruby LRC... if it has silver hardware my guess would be pomegranate crunch because my pom LD has purple lining.
