CHAT about Balenciaga Finds

I thought it was embossed something
Yea, never understand how bags wind up looking like this
Must have been used and abused for years!
Whenever I've seen those lizard embossed bags (F/W 2011) pop up for resale they have quite a bit of fading, so I'm guessing they're fragile.
Either the dye didn't adhere as well to the embossed surface or maybe the neon pigment (blue, green or pink) was finicky. :shrugs:

Did ya’ll see that bright blue bag on TRR’s 1st Look?
Looks like someone dragged it across the parking lot

Does it look like it could be snakeskin or is this one of those embossed snakeskin bags

The lizard embossed bags have some of the most beautiful and saturated colors. But they don’t wear like other Bal bags. The color on these seems to flake off rather than just fade.

Hello fine people, please pardon my Bal ignorance - I’m going through my things to rehome and have found this bag - is this a real Balenciaga or a fake? It appears to be black boxcalf (?).

Incredible 06 Blueberry City :loveeyes:

Don't know if seller removed the listing of the Blueberry City or just blocked me, but if she removed it, you have me to thank/blame for it.

I corrected her description that the bag was bought in 01 or 02. She responded that the description was for the black bag and thanked me for the correction. I looked at her black bag and saw that it's hella fake so I commented as much. She declares with equally fake authority that the bag is not fake. And immediately the blueberry listing disappeared, while the fako black is still up. At least for me.

EDIT: looks like the fake black is also gone.
