Hi Ladies!
The more I see pictures from the amazing forum and what you all own, the more I fall for Bijoux chain. I just wonder if
- Chanel still makes Bijoux hardware as I haven't seen them at all
- Which size and skin would go best with it?
I do love lambskin with Bijoux. It's just elegant but I'm not sure if I'm careful enough to buy a lambskin.

;) Please help
 
I'm not sure if Chanel still make Bijoux chain however I haven't seen it in awhile. I personally think bijoux looks best in the jumbo size and caviar leather. GL deciding.
 
I'm on the hunt right now for a black caviar with the bijoux chains, so I agree that it's a gorgeous bag! I've been looking for awhile now and in that time I've seen multiple lambskin ones pop up on ebay. If you aren't averse to buying used, you should check that site periodically to see what pops up.

Good Luck!
 
I believe the bijoux chain only came out in 2007 for lambskin bags so that's why you're not able to hunt one down now. I'm sure you can search for some on auction sites. Good luck!
 
^ I believe you saw a hybrid, which is a bijoux chain w/ MM lock (of reissues). and a classic flap shape (more boxy). Bijoux flaps came in lamb, glazed lamb and caviar since 07. If you search the forum, there's many pictures of the chain.
