Does anyone own anything in gold fjord? How does it compare to gold togo (cooler) vs. gold clemence (warmer)? Any pix anyone could add to our reference thread??

Thanks!
 
frenchie, I believe xquisite has a gold fjord birkin on order from Paris. Can't wait to see it, too, cause fjord seems like such a great leather and gold is a classic color. When I was in Paris recently, they said they could order a fjord birkin 35, but not a 30. They could also do fjord in a bolide. Didn't ask about fjord kellies, but wish I had...
 
Thanks for the bump, GF. Yes, it is true - I am waiting for a gold fjord birkin (It's well known that I like 'em stiff)! It is a 35cm (and as mizzle said, fjord's not offered this season in 30cm).
I have never seen this actual combo, but FSH did have a 32 plume in gold fjord which was gorgeous, and after trying it out a few times convinced me that this was the combo for me. Fjord is also a great leather for plumes, IMO.
Gold in fjord is close to the colour in togo - It's more neutral / cool than in clemence or swift (which has a lot more orange in it).
I'm really hoping to have a delivery in the next month:sweatdrop: so I can post some pics.

xquisite - that's awesome! hope we get to see it soon!
 
Cool!! I was hoping it would appear more like the togo color than the clemence color!!! Thanks!

Why if they offer it in a 35 this podium wouldn't they offer it in a 30?? Would it have to be a SO then in a 30?
 
FF, perhaps the skins at the moment in Fjord are more suited to the larger size? You know how the really large grained skin can look weird on a smaller bag...so perhaps they decided to leave it for 35's only?

Giant Cows? It's all those suppliments they're on.
