This could be my first knot! I can't wait to see it in person.

India Ink, I also stopped for a few minutes at the very same picture :smile:
The technique used to create the amazing effect is both simple and clever. I always wonder what goes through the mind of the artisans when they create stuff like this.

i saw this knot at the trunk show. it's feels great in the hand. the artisan cuts each intrecciato by hand to create the fringe! i forgot the price, unfortunately.
 
Thanks for your help :smile:
That one is gorgeous but i had my eye on the kelly-style bag :smile:
Wish i could get that butterfly cabat!

the structured woven bag is a great size but is a tad fiddly, imo. those metal pieces that look like they hang down from the handle are actually locks/clasps. it's an accordion construction so its actually quite roomy.

the butterfly cabat is absolutely beautiful. made of memory leather (it has aluminum filaments throughout the leather) so it can be shaped and formed as you wish. the same with the butterflies so you can adjust the wings as necessary so you don't have to worry about crushing them when you carry them.

Thanks so much!
I found a sweet SA to find out the price point of the kelly style and she will take some
Photos upon it's arrival late dec early jan.
It's just amazing that cabat :smile:
Thanks again
 
The new colours for spring are gorgeous! I don't know if I'm allowed to say this haha but I do work for BV and would be willing to help you ladies if you want clear pictures of the new colours or styles! My favourite colour is the Appia Pink, very pretty salmon shade! We haven't received everything yet (I imagine the more detailed and unique pieces will arrive in about a month) but we did receive our basic bags, aka the Veneta, Roma, etc... In the new colours :smile:.
 
Pic of the LE Butterfly Knot:
The appliqués are constructed from a memory leather base with an Ayers or Elaphe snakeskin inserts. The limited edition is 200 and the US market will only receive 29 of them

This Season has me Knot crazy! I really like the patchwork/applique Knot, and the Ayers/Metal Knot on a chain.

There are some very pretty ballet style shoes, too.

What is this Knot called? Is is LE?

Butterfly Ayers Elaphe Knot... with Nero, Poussin, Antique and Reseda pieces. It's not LE unlike the one with the actual butterflies. The latter has a metal plate inside (like the Cabat's pouch). This one has the usual heat stamp.

I got to hold this at the trunk show and it feels very solid in the hand (which is a good thing in my book).

BTW, I believe this particular knot is part of S/S 2013 main line and not Cruise.
 
^^ If you're referring to the Poussin knot with tiny fringes then it's made of lambskin with ayers on the frame.
It costs HK$15,950 so it should be over US$2K. Come... be my Knot twin! ;)

PS: It also comes in Nero, Antique (cream) and Appia (red)
 
I was referring to this knot..I think you are right. This is the Poussin knot.

What color are you getting? This cream is beauty

Resort Cruise 2012/2013 is on the BV website now! However, they're not displaying the color names anymore and I'm really confused!!

Anyone knows the color name for code 2583, 2599 and 2515 ?

2599 Sabia

2515/ 2583 Edoardo (don't know which....)
