I'm thinking about a purchase in NY in April .... how hard is ruthenium HW to get? I'm sure that guilloche is like SO or a discovery that has to be total serendipity.......
 
Ruthenium appears pretty randomly--I've seen at least two bags on the shelf with ruthenium over the last few months. Currently, I'm pretty sure that Guilloche is available by special order only.
 
I haven't seen either one live. I understand ruthenium is a little like a gunmetal grey tone? And guilloche is carved or something, I believe. Shed some light on this please!
 
MM--you are correct in your assessment of Ruthenium; a few of our members have ruthenium hardware on their bags. Here is a photo of my Kelly double tour bracelet in box with Guilloche hardware:

Eric you have no idea how lucky you are to wear a Kelly double tour! i was in love with it but my fat wrists couldn't fit in it, the sa and I were trying to flod my wrist in half to fit, to this day I'm still not over it and i would kill for one :sad:

Why don't you ask them if it is possible for them to make you a special one in your size? If you don't ask, you'll never know if its possible!

I didn't know you could SO sizes of things i thought it was just the leathers colors HW etc. on standard models. really sorry for hijacking, back to the topic: i have been a fan of ruthenium for the longest time, it might be because i am a guy and its more masculine but i think it pwetty, then again all Hermes i gorgeous
 
Eric--that's so cool--I bet it looks gorgeous in Noisette!

Millstream & Shoes--thanks!
